Energy and resources consultations and reviews

Current consultations

We’re seeking feedback on key policy areas to inform work that will set the direction and pace of change for energy in New Zealand.

The consultations include:

• a plan for managing the gas industry’s transition to a low emissions future
• an Interim Hydrogen Roadmap to set out the government’s initial views on the future role of hydrogen in New Zealand
• regulations to enable offshore renewable energy development
• market measures to ensure electricity is affordable, reliable and resilient while we transition to an expanded and more highly renewable system
• how we will implement the Government’s commitment to ban new fossil fuel baseload electricity generation.

The consultation is open for submissions until 2 November 2023, 5pm.
