Green Energy

The Green Energy portfolio has been developed to focus on Tiwai certainty, decarbonisation and developing a green hydrogen energy future.View of the Tiwai Aluminium Smelter from Stirling Point, Bluff.View of the Tiwai Aluminium Smelter from Stirling Point, Bluff.

The world’s energy system is changing. Burning fossil fuels to produce electricity, power vehicles and manufacture goods is driving climate change. Governments around the world, including New Zealand’s, have committed to reducing our reliance on fossil fuels. These changes are both a challenge and an opportunity.

Purpose

Ngāi Tahu ki Murihiku at the centre of large scale clean energy capability that protects te taiao and supports growth and well being for our region and country.
