Right now across New Zealand, energy companies are developing and building new renewable electricity generation and batteries, connecting to the grid to supply this extra power wherever it's needed.
Local electricity networks are investing in new grid connections so they can deliver more power to homes and businesses. And New Zealand's biggest energy users are connecting to support their businesses to electrify and grow.
At Transpower, we're working hard to connect these large-scale projects to our national transmission network.
On this map are all our projects for grid connection that are currently being delivered (either in the detailed design phase or under construction).
This map is updated monthly and was last updated on 9 November 2026. It reflects the detailed information about projects provided in the our monthly connection and load pipeline updates, which are available for download from this webpage.
Please note locations are indicative only, particularly where clustered at a single site. The intent is to show at a glance the breadth of work currently underway and the spread across the country. More images will be added as projects progress.
The map will be expanded by the end of the year to include projects completed in the last two years as well as generation projects commissioned onto the grid but embedded in distribution networks.
Please use the category filters at the top right to filter specific project types.
