EECA’s targeted investment and support  

EECA supports projects that demonstrate how smarter energy use can reduce demand, improve efficiency, and deliver real savings for people and businesses across New Zealand.

Past programmes have delivered co-funding and expert support to help businesses, public sector organisations, and households access innovative, efficient technologies — and to share their learnings widely. 

This support has cut costs, improved energy resilience, and reduced emissions across New Zealand.  

Projects that have been co-funded

  • Low emissions transport

    The Low Emissions Transport Fund focuses on activities in the transport sector that move people and/or goods on roads, off-road, and in the marine and aviation sectors to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
