Clean heat
'Clean' heat refers to heating systems that produce very little or no air-pollution, and are highly efficient to run - such as ENERGY STAR® heat pumps and efficient woodburners, wood pellet stoves, and flued gas heating. This is particularly important in areas of high air pollution in New Zealand, called 'critical airshed areas'.
Our clean heat programme
The ENERGYWISE™ programme for clean and efficient heat funds clean heating retrofits for pre-2000 houses occupied by people on a low income. This initiative is delivered with funding from the Ministry for the Environment, and is targeted at critical airshed areas.
