A large share of New Zealand’s renewable energy development pipeline is concentrated in the North Island, where demand, generation opportunity, infrastructure, and land use pressures all intersect. For energy developers, that makes local knowledge and technical coordination critical. BTW has teams in five North Island locations, supporting projects with expertise and integrated service provision – one project, one connected team.
A current renewable energy project that BTW has supported is Te Rahui Solar Farm – a 400 MW solar farm under construction at Rangitāiki near Taupō, jointly developed by Nova Energy and Meridian Energy, and expected to generate enough renewable electricity to power around 100,000 homes annually.
“As a key project service provider, BTW is proud to have supported Te Rahui from its early planning and consenting stages. It is rewarding to now see panels being installed and construction progressing on a project that will make a significant contribution to New Zealand’s renewable energy future”, Cam Twigley, Pou Taiao, Director, Principal Planner at BTW.
BTW is proud to support New Zealand Geothermal Week in Taupō from 10 to 15 August 2026.
