Solar power in New Zealand is increasing in capacity, in part due to price supports created through the emissions trading scheme. As of the end of April 2024, New Zealand has 420 MW of grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) solar power installed, of which 146 MW (35%) was installed in the last 12 months. In the 12 months to December 2023, 372 gigawatt-hours of electricity was estim.
