What happened
A survey by Talbot Mills, commissioned by Rewiring Aotearoa and 350 Aotearoa, found that 57 percent of respondents prefer renewable generation and storage over an LNG terminal in Taranaki if the government were to spend $1 billion on energy security. Furthermore, 68 percent of respondents stated that long-term energy and transport cost reduction would be a critical factor in their voting.

Why it matters
The survey results indicate a strong public preference for binding, long-term energy strategies that accelerate renewable energy adoption to reduce household power bills. This suggests a potential shift in political and market focus toward renewable infrastructure investment in New Zealand.
