About Genesis Energy
Genesis Energy is a state-owned electricity generator and energy retailer. Its one of New Zealand's largest energy companies, with a portfolio that includes gas exploration and production, 2049.65MW of electricity generation, and a retail business providing electricity and gas to around 700,000 homes and businesses throughout the country.
Genesis Energy generates power from more sources than any other electricity generator in New Zealand - including hydro, thermal and wind and now solar with our installation of photovoltaic systems to schools across New Zealand through Schoolgen. More information about our assets can be found here.
Genesis Energy is committed to ensuring all its non-generation activities are carbon neutral, which means they don't add carbon to the atmosphere over their lifetimes. Offsetting is regarded as an option only after all other avenues have been explored.
The company is working to minimise the impact staff have on the environment on a day-to-day basis. This includes staff travel, waste minimisation practices, energy efficiency practices in our offices and the introduction of Sustainable Purchasing and Building Guidelines.
