Energy supply

As well as managing our demand for energy, we need to think about how that energy is supplied.

Our energy supply programme

EECA's primary focus in this area is in encouraging the widespread uptake of renewable energy. This includes large and small scale renewable energy projects, domestic use of renewable energy, and renewable energy opportunities in business and government.

Our energy supply programme also works with other government agencies on developing a more an efficient electricty system that uses low carbon fuel and makes the most of all of our demand management opportunities.

EECA asked Concept Consulting to look at the implications for security of the electricity supply system from increasing levels of renewable energy in New Zealand.
