Our energy modelling work programme produces projections of future energy supply, demand, prices and emissions.

The government’s energy strategies set the policy direction and priorities for the New Zealand energy sector and focus on transitioning to a net zero carbon emissions by 2050, while building a more productive, sustainable and inclusive economy.

On this page you can find the data tables for electricity generation and demand in New Zealand.

We carry out weekly monitoring of importer margins for regular petrol, premium petrol and automotive diesel. This data is updated weekly, using the previous week's data.

The Ministry of Business, Innovation, and Employment (MBIE) published an Interim Hydrogen Roadmap (the Interim Roadmap) on 9 August 2023 to test initial positions and proposed actions, on the role of hydrogen as part of New Zealand’s energy transition.

Every year from 2009 - 2012 we released a full set of energy sector-wide Reference Scenario projections of energy supply, demand, and emissions. This series has been replaced with the New Zealand’s Energy Outlook: Insight series which focuses discussion on specific parts of the energy system.

In late 2023, we sought feedback on policy that will set the direction and pace of change for energy in New Zealand.
