We are investigating potential electricity infrastructure upgrades in the Tararua and Wairarapa region, to resolve transmission constraints and enable connection of significant new renewable generation - and we want to hear from you.
This region is experiencing a surge in renewable generation projects with over 1,000 MW of new solar and wind generation in our connection pipeline.
We recently held a long list consultation, seeking feedback from generation developers and other interested stakeholders to inform and shape our transmission plans, and ensure any investments provide the most economic options to get these abundant energy resources to market. Our long list consultation has now closed. You can view our documents below or contact us at: [email protected].
