Infratec kicked off construction of the 33MWp Taiohi solar farm in April 2024 for NewPower Energy. Located in the Northern Waikato and developed in conjunction with WEL Networks, Taiohi has been designed with best-in-class technology from around the world.
Since commissioning was completed in December 2025, Taiohi’s 47,000 solar panels are providing renewable generation capacity to strengthen supply resilience across the Waikato.
The name Taiohi, meaning youthful, was gifted by mana whenua, recognising the shared commitment to a future built on clean energy and partnership. We are grateful to Maurea Marae for their support and collaboration throughout this project.
