Lauriston Solar Plant Energises New Zealand with 63-MW Renewable Boost
Australia-based Fotowatio Renewable Ventures (FRV) and New Zealand utility Genesis Energy have officially powered up the Lauriston Solar Farm, a 63-MW array that now ranks among the country’s largest operating photovoltaic plants. The project, built on a 93-hectare site in Canterbury, hosts nearly 90,000 panels and feeds clean electricity into the national grid under a 10-year power-purchase agreement signed by Genesis. Construction, carried out by Beon Energy Solutions, created about 100 on-site jobs and handed the reins to a three-person team that will handle day-to-day operations and maintenance. At the opening ceremony, attended by South Island minister James Meager, Ashburton mayor Neil Brown and regional power executives, speakers underscored the plant’s dual role as an economic catalyst and a cornerstone of New Zealand’s decarbonisation strategy. FRV Australia chief executive Carlo Frigerio said Lauriston “embodies our ambition to pair innovative engineering with tangible social benefits.” Those benefits include a five-year partnership with the local Lauriston School, which will roll out new STEM programmes using the solar farm as a real-world classroom. For Genesis Energy, the project marks the first utility-scale asset in a solar pipeline it is co-developing with FRV. Chief executive Malcolm Johns noted that reaching net-zero by mid-century will require electricity to supply roughly 60 % of national energy demand—up from 38 % today—and at least 95 % of that power must be renewable. “Lauriston is proof of what strategic alliances can deliver,” he said, adding that further joint projects are already advancing in Foxton and other locations. The solar plant arrives as ageing gas and coal assets face retirement and hydropower output grapples with climate-driven variability. By adding predictable midday generation, Lauriston strengthens grid resilience and trims reliance on fossil-fuel peakers during high-demand periods. As New Zealand races to close the remaining gap to 100 % renewable electricity, the Lauriston Solar Farm stands as a visible reminder that utility-scale solar—once a novelty in the island nation—is rapidly becoming an essential part of the energy landscape.
