-
Engage hearts and minds
We're working to create an enabling environment for systemic change, where clean and clever energy is expected and demanded.
How we make an impact
We work to create positive change across systems using a combination of three important levers.
-
1
Co-investing
We co-invest in energy-efficient technologies and renewable sources of energy.
When there are financial barriers, we help to overcome these and appropriately share the financial risk to incentivise energy users to invest in technologies and renewable sources of energy that can make a real difference.
-
2
Motivating people
We motivate people to make clean and clever energy choices.
We develop and communicate credible information that will help targeted audiences to make informed choices, and to take action.
-
3
Regulating
We use regulations to prevent inefficient products and appliances from being sold in New Zealand.
We provide evidence and insights to Government to help develop the energy-related policies needed to transition to a low emissions economy.
