We are investing in our electricity network to ensure a safe, reliable supply and to support the future energy needs of our communities. View our recent projects to see how we’re enhancing network resilience and capacity across South Canterbury.
Ultra-fast broadband29 Aug 2017 Ultra-fast broadband is not something commonly associated with an energy company but delivering wholesale fibre optic cable services to retailers is a growing enterprise for Alpine Energy. For more than five years we’ve been involved in owning and managing fibre optic networks throughout South Canterbury and, as a result of customer demand, we’re looking to expand the existing fibre network. |
Fast charging stations26 Jul 2017 Recently we installed a public electric vehicle (EV) fast-charging station in Tekapo and Twizel, bringing our total number of fast-charging stations to seven across the district. In 2016 we opened South Canterbury’s first public electric vehicle (EV) fast-charging stations in Timaru and Waimate. We have since added to that with fast-chargers now in Fairlie, Geraldine and Temuka. |
Waihao Downs Irrigation Scheme25 Jul 2017 The Waihao Downs Irrigation Scheme is one of the many rural based projects we have been involved with. The growth in the farming sector and demand for irrigation saw the opening of the Waihao Downs Irrigation Scheme, located about 60km south of Timaru as part of an extension to the Morven Glenavy Ikawai Irrigation scheme. |
