Rotohiko Battery Energy Storage System (BESS)

The future of electricity is defined by increased choice for you, the consumer. Distributed power systems will enhance your control over your renewable energy consumption, giving you the freedom to innovate and adapt to reduce your
carbon emissions. NewPower is proud to be driving that future with the development of the Rotohiko Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) near Huntly.

Rotohiko BESS gave us a unique opportunity to play a pivotal role in supporting New Zealand’s move to Net Zero by employing new technologies and innovative thinking. On a project of this scale, the going is bound to get tough, and when that happens, we get going. We persevere, we pull together, we work smarter to get it done. We’re thrilled to
not only commission New Zealand’s largest BESS, but to deliver large-scale value to WEL Networks now and into the future.

With our partner brand, Infratec’s pioneering reputation built designing and installing solar farms and batteries in the pacific, we’re bringing this expertise to New Zealand to empower the consumer. Storage batteries and solar are your future in-home, factory, or local supply network tech partners, using innovative energy solutions to charge your vehicles, heat your water, and power your business – without increasing your carbon emissions.

Innovation, tenacity, and strong relationships are the foundations of a successful decarbonisation journey. We’re here to help you get started.
