In addition to Australia's support, the New Zealand Government contributed $2.5 million to relocate and restore Niue's Battery Energy Storage System (BESS). This funding has allowed the Ministry to repair the grid control system, procure necessary fuel tanks, and install cabling and connections.
The project will be completed mid-2026 when the Government of Niue under the Department of Utilities and Niue Power Corporation (NPC) will take over the ownership. We anticipate savings of 816,000 litres of fuel and 2,202 tCO2e in year one. It will support Niue to deliver on our climate goals and Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs).
The Minister of Infrastructure, Hon. Crossley Tatui extended his appreciation to the Australian and New Zealand Governments, saying, “The construction of this new power station is a vital piece of infrastructure for Niue's development and well-being. This achievement would not have been possible without the support of our regional partners.”
The Ministry of Infrastructure celebrated the so5 launch of Niue's New Power Sta;on on the 7th November 2024. The launch marks a cri;cal milestone in Niue's journey to strengthen and modernize its energy infrastructure.
