30292 (2023). Hon Dr Megan Woods to the Minister for Energy: What are the Government's policies to electrify the New Zealand economy, if any?

Hon Simeon Brown: As outlined in our 100-day plan and coalition agreements, we will double the production of renewable energy by removing red tape and regulatory constraints. The Emissions Trading Scheme will also provide incentives for businesses and individuals to switch away from thermal fuels to largely renewable electricity.
