We’re ambitious for the energy future of Aotearoa. We’re committed to enabling Aotearoa to be net-zero by 2050 by providing reliable, affordable and sustainable energy solutions.
Our business
We’re here to connect communities
We keep the energy flowing to more than one million Kiwis across the North Island of Aotearoa, connecting the regions we serve to safe, reliable electricity and gas.
As the country’s largest dual-energy distributor by length, we own and operate 29,300km of electricity lines and 6,300km of gas pipes.
From urban and rural homes and businesses, to large-scale industrial operations, keeping our customers connected now and into the future drives everything we do.
It’s a big challenge, and we’re proud to do it.
