Abstract


New Zealand is at an energy cross-roads. Recent events and public debate have highlighted our lack of energy security resulting in shut-downs and job loses – our energy system now seems to be lurching from crisis to crisis. As a country with a rich natural resource endowment, how did we find ourselves in this position, is it as bad as its being reported and what can we do to rectify it? What steps can we take to ensure New Zealand’s energy security while achieving our long term climate goals?
