How we can work together, sustainably

  • Solar v6

    Commercial solar

    Solar energy is good energy. We can help your business harness the power of the sun with our commercial solar plans.

    If the thought of upfront capital costs makes you hesitant to get onboard, don’t worry. We can set you up with a Solar Power Purchase Agreement, which makes it easy for you to get started. We’ll take care of the design, installation, and maintenance while you pay it off. Too easy! We can also set you up fully and leave the rest to you, if that’s what you’d prefer.

  • Certified v2

    Certified Renewable Energy

    Certified Renewable Energy completely changes the carbon reporting and offsetting game for New Zealand businesses. It’s a product that will enable you to report your Scope 2 electricity emissions – those ones linked to your electricity usage – as zero*.

    Choosing Certified shows your customers, partners, stakeholders and communities that you care about the future of our planet.

    *Using the market-based reporting methodology as per the GHG Protocol’s Scope 2 Standards.

  • Process heat v2

    Process heat electrification

    The future is electric! We can help you electrify your process heating system with some pretty competitive pricing*. It’s an environmentally conscious choice you can feel good about. Unlike solid fuels, you don’t need to burn anything, so there’s no fuel storage, deliveries, discharge consents or mucky residue to dispose of either.

    It’s clean, it’s quiet and we’re here to make it affordable.

    *Eligibility, terms, and conditions apply.
