New Zealand's Energy Outlook to 2030 gives 25-year projections of New Zealand energy supply, demand, prices and greenhouse gas emissions under "business as usual" assumptions. It also presents 11 sensitivity cases, selected for their ability to inform and educate readers on how New Zealand's energy system might respond to a wide range of hypothetical changes in the business environment. A concluding chapter examines two scenarios for achieving an energy system for New Zealand that is secure, affordable, and environmentally responsible.
This edition of Energy Outlook is designed to be a starting point for anyone wanting to become more informed about the energy choices New Zealand faces. In addition to projections, it provides essential background on every form of commercial energy, on each category of demand, and on the relationship of energy to climate change. There are many links to primary information sources for those who wish to dig deeper.
The Final Publication differs from the August 2006 Pre-Publication Edition in having improved layout and graphics. However, except for minor edits, the content is the same.
