新西兰的主要电力来自水电站。尽管风力发电比重较小,但是随着对风电资源的更多利用,新西兰风力发电比重会快速增大。地热能相对成本较低,作为新西兰固有的发电形式有助于满足日益增长的电力需求。利用太阳能热水系统和将太阳能辐射转化为电能在新西兰应用普遍。新西兰能效和节能管理局促进企业、政府、社区和个人协作,把能效和可再生能源融入到日常活动中。
New Zealand’s main electricity comes from hydropower stations. Although the share of wind power is small, the share of wind power in New Zealand will rapidly increase as wind resources become more available. The relatively low cost of geothermal energy, as an indigenous form of power generation in New Zealand, helps to meet the growing demand for electricity. The use of solar hot water systems and the conversion of solar radiation into electricity are common in New Zealand. The New Zealand Energy Efficiency and Conservation Authority promotes business, government, community and individual collaboration to integrate energy efficiency and renewable energy into day-to-day activities.
