Plan for realistic levels of future growth demand
Undertake a careful review of the roles that the Electricity Commission, the Commerce Commission, and Transpower play in the electricity sector
Streamline the investment and decisionmaking processes for investing in new electricity transmission
Require Transpower to negotiate in good faith to achieve access agreements that recognise the interests of landowners

Provide incentives for ongoing investment in electricity generation, with a particular focus on local generation where feasible
Seek to minimise the environmental costs of generating electricity whilst facilitating continuity of supply
There will be no privatisation of Meridian, Genesis, and Mighty River Power, Transpower, or Solid Energy
Ensure that barriers to competition are identified and removed within both the electricity retail and wholesale sectors
Consider a range of incentives for reducing demand in times of restricted low supply

Support upgrading the national grid in areas where such an upgrade provides the best solution for ensuring security of supply
Convert Transpower NZ Ltd to a public utility with the sole objective of transporting power through the National Grid at the lowest possible long-term cost to the consumer
Make it easier and cheaper for micro-generators to connect directly to local electricity networks
