Half Yearly 2008

Half Yearly 2008

The report describes Transpower's financial and operational performance for the six months to 31 December 2008.

The primary focus of the Board and management remains on ensuring New Zealand has a robust and reliable national transmission system.

Transpower has embarked on a significant investment programme - both new build and refurbishment and renewal of existing assets - following a long period of very low investment. This is critically important for New Zealand as a growing population increases the demand for electricity, and sustainable generation is increasingly being built remote from load centres. Further, a robust and reliable grid is essential to an open and competitive electricity market and to grow the economy.

Half Yearly 2007

Half Yearly 2007

Transpower, the owner and operator of the national electricity grid, made good progress on planning and implementing necessary investment in the grid during the six months ending 31 December 2007.

The operating surplus after tax for the six months to December 2007 was $51 million, down $23.6 million on the $74.7 million achieved in the same period last year. This result reflects in part the costs of the Market Systems Project (MSP), which are not expected to be fully recovered from the Electricity Commission. The MSP project is critical to the electricity industry as a whole as it will provide improved ability to deal with the increased complexity of load growth and increasing amounts of renewable generation.
