Planning for the future energy needs of a country is a challenging role. In this episode of EQ Quest, we're looking at steps being taken in New Zealand by EECA (Energy Efficiency & Conservation Authority). Their goal is "moving Aotearoa towards a sustainable energy system that supports the wellbeing of current and future generations". My guest is Richard Briggs, the Group Manager, Warmer Kiwi Homes, Public Sector and Transport at EECA. Richard provides fascinating insights on potential future plans for the NZ EV market, recaps previous projects undertaken, while also looking at the more than just EVs - the larger picture of energy efficiency and the use of renewable energy sources. https://www.eeca.govt.nz/
