Distributed generation: study of alternative energy supply options for remote communities

Research and reports

1 March 2009

The report examines the potential for small scale generation and energy management in five remote sites in South Canterbury. Technical information and economic costs and benefits for a variety of options in each location are presented.
The report illustrates that - with the right set of conditions - small scale generation can be a viable alternative option for lines companies in the following applications:
• It can replace an existing remote lines supply, particularly where:
o The line length is relatively long and dedicated to only one or two consumers;

Costs and Benefits of Connecting Distributed Generation to Local Networks

Research and reports

1 March 2009

The aim of the study is to quantify the potential future
(until 2030) economic costs and benefits of connecting
distributed generation (DG) to New Zealand's local
distribution networks. DG is a generator that is connected
to the distribution network and is not directly connected to
the transmission network.

Grid connected domestic and small scale renewables in New Zealand

Research and reports

1 March 2009

Hydro Tasmania Consulting, Climate Managers and Baker & McKenzie have been
engaged by EECA to develop a Business-As-Usual (BAU) case for the take-up rates of
domestic and small-scale grid-integrated renewable energy (electricity) systems in New
Zealand to the year 2030. This report outlines the assumptions and influences affecting
the take-up-rate projections, and includes BAU projections.

Developing Small-Scale Renewable Energy Projects in New Zealand

Research and reports

1 March 2009

This report provides high level guidance to independent renewable energy project developers who wish to investigate and progress distributed generation projects.

This report was commissioned by EECA and prepared by Sinclair Knight Merz Pty Ltd. The report focuses on geothermal, hydro and wind projects in the range of 10 kW to 20 MW. The report makes developers aware of the range of issues that need to be addressed at the early stages of such projects, up until the point when developers typically seek tender submissions for detailed design and equipment supply.
