Meridian Energy Limited ( (MDDNF) ) just unveiled an update.

Genesis Energy, alongside New Zealand’s other major electricity generators, is exploring options to extend the operational life of the Huntly Power Station’s Rankine Units to enhance national energy security. This move responds to recent challenges in energy supply due to declining natural gas availability and adverse weather conditions affecting hydro and wind power. The new commercial structure being considered includes strategic fuel reserves and possibly extending existing firming options for up to a decade, with new arrangements expected by 2026, pending regulatory approvals.
