The terms and conditions are available online at www.iea.org/about/copyright.asp Energy Policies of IEA Countries New Zealand 2010 Review Energy Policies of IEA Countries New Zealand New Zealand’s strong commitment to liberalised energy markets has delivered a relatively high level of energy security and economic prosperity for consumers. Since the previous IEA review in 2006, the government has built on the success of existing policy mechanisms and implemented a number of far-reaching changes in the electricity sector and environmental policy. But progress in some sectors, such as energy efficiency, has not been as strong as anticipated. In mid-2010, the government commenced a review of the New Zealand Energy Strategy. The result is the publication of a new energy strategy, which establishes clear long-term policy priorities and energy-savings goals. Implementing these strategies will bring many new challenges, including attainment of the government’s medium-term energy-savings targets. New Zealand enjoys the advantage of a diverse and balanced portfolio of renewable-energy resources, which contribute over 70% of electricity output – the third highest portion in IEA member countries. This resource base has the potential to deliver greater volumes of energy and the government aspires to increase this proportion to 90% of electricity generation by 2025. Meeting this target will bring many benefits but also tough challenges, such as maintaining a robust National Grid. This review analyses the energy-policy challenges facing New Zealand and provides sectoral critiques and recommendations for further policy improvements. It is intended to help guide New Zealand towards a more sustainable energy future. -:HSTCQE=U^Y\W\: (61 2010 25 1P1) 978-92-64-09472-7 €75 Energy Policies of IEA Countries New Zealand 2010 Review July 2011 version Erratum for paragraph 6, p.49. Four sentences in the paragraph of the previous version of this publication were omitted. The paragraph should have read: Nonetheless, New Zealand’s energy efficiency policies and programmes face several challenges. Energy intensity has improved by approximately 1% per year between 1995 and 2007, not enough to offset the economy-wide increase in energy demand of approximately 2% each year. Energy performance varies across sectors. In 2008, transport accounted for 38% of energy consumption. From 1995 to 2007, energy consumption in the transport sector increased by 2.9% per year (freight by 3.9% per year and passenger transport by 2.1% per year). Growth in this sector, thus caused by the increasing number of vehicles on the road, appears to be the biggest energy-saving challenge. INTERNATIONAL ENERGY AGENCY The International Energy Agency (IEA), an autonomous agency, was established in November 1974. Its mandate is two-fold: to promote energy security amongst its member countries through collective response to physical disruptions in oil supply and to advise member countries on sound energy policy. The IEA carries out a comprehensive programme of energy co-operation among 28 advanced economies, each of which is obliged to hold oil stocks equivalent to 90 days of its net imports. The Agency aims to: n Secure member countries’ access to reliable and ample supplies of all forms of energy; in particular, through maintaining effective emergency response capabilities in case of oil supply disruptions. n Promote sustainable energy policies that spur economic growth and environmental protection in a global context – particularly in terms of reducing greenhouse-gas emissions that contribute to climate change. n Improve transparency of international markets through collection and analysis of energy data. n Support global collaboration on energy technology to secure future energy supplies and mitigate their environmental impact, including through improved energy efficiency and development and deployment of low-carbon technologies. n Find solutions to global energy challenges through engagement and dialogue with non-member countries, industry, international organisations and other stakeholders.

  • Microgeneration Potential in New Zealand
    Prepared for Parliamentary Commissioner for the Environment Microgeneration Potential in New Zealand A Study of Small-scale Energy Generation Potential by East Harbour Management Services ISBN: 1-877274-33-X May 2006 Microgeneration Potential in New Zealand East Harbour Executive summary The study of the New Zealand’s potential for micro electricity generation technologies (defined as local generation for local use) in the period up to 2035 shows that a total of approximately 580GWh per annum is possible within current Government policies. If electricity demand modifiers (solar water heating, passive solar design, and energy efficiency) are included, there is approximately an additional 15,800GWh per annum available. In total, around 16,400GWh of electricity can be either generated on-site, or avoided by adopting microgeneration of energy services. The study has considered every technology that the authors are aware of. However, sifting the technologies reduced the list to those most likely to be adopted to a measurable scale during the period of the study. The definition of micro electricity generation technologies includes • those that generate electricity to meet local on-site energy services, and • those that convert energy resources directly into local energy services, such as the supply of hot water or space heating, without the intermediate need for electricity. The study has considered the potential uptake of each technology within each of the periods to 2010, 2020, and 2035. It also covers residential energy services and those services for small- to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that can be obtained by on-site generation of electricity or substitution of electricity.

The City Council is the building’s owner. The building, which has in recent decades been used by the Porirua Little Theatre, was constructed in 1942-43, during World War 2, as a recreation hall for the U.S. Marines stationed at the Titahi Bay Camp. Eight camps were established along the West Coast of the Wellington region during that time either using buildings already in existence (such as the old golf club house at Titahi Bay) or constructing purpose built facilities within very tight time frames. Since the war these buildings have gradually been demolished and now the hall at Titahi Bay is the only purpose built structure still in existence from these eight camps and still in its original location.

  • Meridian Energy
    NEW ZEALAND Meridian Energy Performance evaluation Meridian Energy equity valuation Macquarie Research’s discounted cashflow-based equity valuation for Meridian Energy (MER) is $6,463m (nominal WACC 8.6%, asset beta 0.60, TGR 3.0%). We have assumed, in this estimate, that MER receives $750m for its Tekapo A and B assets. Forecast financial model Inside A detailed financial model with explicit forecasts out to 2030 has been completed and is summarised in this report. Performance evaluation 2 Financial model assumptions and commentary Valuation summary 5 We have assessed the sensitivity of our equity valuation to a range of inputs. Financial model assumptions and Broadly, the sensitivities are divided into four categories: generation commentary 7 assumptions, electricity demand, financial and price path. Financial statements summary 15 We highlight and discuss a number of key model input assumptions in the report: Financial flexibility and generation Wholesale electricity price path; development 18 Electricity demand and pricing; Sensitivities 19 The New Zealand Aluminium Smelters (NZAS) supply contract; Alternative valuation methodologies 20 Relative disclosure 21 MER’s generation development pipeline. Alternative valuation methodology We have assessed a comparable company equity valuation for the company of $4,942m-$6,198m. This is based on the current earnings multiples of listed comparable generator/retailers globally. This valuation provides a cross-check of the equity valuation based on our primary methodology, discounted cashflow. This valuation range lies below our primary valuation due, in part, to the recent de-rating of global renewable energy multiples (absolutely and vis-a-vis conventional generators). Relative disclosure We have assessed the disclosure levels of MER’s financial reports and presentations over the last financial period against listed and non-listed companies operating in the electricity generation and energy retailing sector in New Zealand.
