and there’s no electricity retailer playing middle man.

A unit of self-generated and self-consumed electricity from solar can generate benefits that positively impact the entire energy value chain.

This reduction of congestion can also defer transmission and network investment, meaning we all save.

How can I get solar working for me?

For one, you need to choose a specialist, reputable partner - and this should always be an accredited SEANZ member.

SEANZ carefully scrutinise solar providers and ensures that they’re up to the task of providing a reputable, reliable solution and service.

New Zealand is electrifying our transport fleet and industry at an alarming rate, which is great news for our carbon emissions and climate targets, but have we built the generation for this demand?

In the last year, we’ve burnt more coal than ever before (and it’s all imported) to keep pace with the demands for electricity and peak demand response.

This is simply not a sustainable future for our electricity supply, nor is it what is envisaged when we buy our EV’s to decarbonise transport.

Our political leaders have a target of 100% renewable electricity generation by 2030, yet here we are importing coal in 2023 to burn for electricity generation. It is simply not acceptable; in fact it is embarrassing!

Politically, we seem to be waiting and watching for two (possible) white elephants that are touted as solutions to our renewable energy shortage – the much talked about future of the aluminium smelter in Bluff, and the proposed development of Lake Onslow hydro battery project.

The reality is, we need action now. We need to be building new, clean, reliable energy generation now – and lots of it!

Solar can be built at any scale, and in almost any location (unlike hydro and wind) meaning it is less reliant on our transmission and distribution assets to move the power to where the demand exists.

Solar power is no silver bullet but is a valuable part of our total energy solution. What solar power does offer is a number of advantages that can benefit stakeholders from individual households, to business owners, commercial and industrial clients, right up to our network providers and even Transpower. Every unit of electricity that is generated and consumed from solar is a unit of electricity that doesn’t need to be generated by a hydro dam (or coal plant) – it doesn’t need to be shifted by our transmission network and it doesn’t need to be distributed by your local lines company and

Ask around and look for a company that has been established for a while, so you don’t end up with someone ‘learning solar’ on your roof.
