Meridian Energy generates, trades and retails electricity from renewable energy sources such as wind and hydro power.

Headquartered in Wellington, New Zealand, and with a presence in the UK, Meridian supplies electricity to homes, businesses and farms. Meridian’s existing power generation facilities include four wind farms across New Zealand and six hydro stations within the Waitaki hydro scheme which provides 16% of New Zealand’s electricity supply. Meridian further leveraged their renewable technology by designing and building a wind farm to power the Scott Base and McMurdo research stations on Ross Island in Antarctica. 

Meridian is engaged in several new renewable electricity generation projects, with a target to build seven large-scale renewables and storage projects across New Zealand by 2030. These projects range from additional wind farms in Hawke’s Bay to an energy park comprised of battery storage and additional solar farms in Whangārei. Across its existing and pipeline projects, Meridian is contributing towards New Zealand’s target of 100% renewable electricity generation by 2030.
