We are so lucky to live in a country rich in renewable energy sources, and we want to make the most of our natural assets.

By living and doing business in smarter ways, we can use less energy, and what we do use can be almost 100% renewable for our electricity.

The success of the Warm Up New Zealand: Heat Smart home insulation scheme is an example of smart, green economics at work. Over 300,000 Kiwis are already in warmer, drier homes that use less electricity because of the programme we negotiated with the National-led Government.

Our energy policy is about minimising the impact of climate change, and enabling all Kiwis to enjoy a high quality life in a clean green Aotearoa New Zealand.
