Energy Efficiency and Conservation Authority

We focus on energy efficiency and the use of renewable energy sources.

We want all of New Zealand to recognise that the energy we save now will be an asset to our future, in a multitude of ways. We want a sustainable energy system that supports the prosperity and well-being of current and future generations.

We're doing this with expertise, research, regulation, co-investment, support — and by engaging the hearts and minds of all New Zealanders. We inspire them to be clean and clever energy users and to demand changes from others. We show them that every effort counts as we transition to a low emissions economy.

EECA was established as a Crown entity under the Energy Efficiency and Conservation Act 2000 to encourage, promote and support energy efficiency, energy conservation and the use of renewable sources of energy.
