  • ERANZ Submission on Electricity Pricing Review Discussion Paper
    23 October 2018 Energy Markets Policy Team Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment By email: [email protected] Dear Energy Markets Policy Team, ERANZ submission on electricity pricing review discussion paper The Electricity Retailers' Association of New Zealand (ERANZ) welcomes the opportunity to submit on Hikohiko Te Uira – the 2018 electricity review discussion report. Several ERANZ members will also be responding separately. Competition is delivering benefits for New Zealand electricity consumers New Zealand is recognised as having one of the world’s leading energy systems in terms of resilience, reliability and sustainability. While that is partly a function of the natural resources that New Zealand enjoys, it is also a function of a system that has the right blend of structure, regulation and competition to support its maintenance and development. ERANZ believes that competition is delivering benefits for consumers. Competition has compelled retail companies to innovate to deliver better offerings to gain and retain customers. Thanks largely to intense competition for customers in the market over the last five-years the energy component of the price of electricity has decreased by 4%. New Zealand has also seen several new entrants to the market, bringing innovation and service offerings as well as new competition for customers. However, there is a concern that not all New Zealanders are benefiting equally. Some are struggling to keep their homes warm and dry while others not participating as much as they could in the competitive market. ERANZ believes there are four key actions that can be taken to benefit all New Zealanders: 1. Build on the definition for energy vulnerability for improved targeting or support 2.

  • Energy Policies of IEA Countires
    ENERGY POLICIES OF IEA COUNTRIES New Zealand 2017 Review Secure Sustainable Together ENERGY POLICIES OF IEA COUNTRIES New Zealand 2017 Review INTERNATIONAL ENERGY AGENCY The International Energy Agency (IEA), an autonomous agency, was established in November 1974. Its primary mandate was – and is – two-fold: to promote energy security amongst its member countries through collective response to physical disruptions in oil supply, and provide authoritative research and analysis on ways to ensure reliable, affordable and clean energy for its 29 member countries and beyond. The IEA carries out a comprehensive programme of energy co-operation among its member countries, each of which is obliged to hold oil stocks equivalent to 90 days of its net imports. The Agency’s aims include the following objectives: 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
