Contact to supply gas under All of Government contract


Contact Energy (Contact) has reached an agreement with Ministry of Business, Innovation

and Employment (MBIE) to supply gas in an All of Government deal from 1 October 2025.

This agreement to supply around 1.65 PJ of gas a year will ensure users like schools and

hospitals have security of gas supply when the government’s agreement with its current

supplier expires on 30 September 2025.

Under the new arrangement, Contact will supply seven years’ worth of gas to around 100

government agencies and institutions giving them certainty of supply and price.

In July, Contact secured up to 7PJs of gas per year until 2032 from Greymouth Gas New

Zealand Limited (GGNZ Ltd). By securing this long-term gas supply, Contact will now be

able to support hundreds more New Zealand businesses, critical gas consumers, and

thousands of Kiwi households as they transition in a managed, orderly way from fossil fuels

to a renewable energy future.

“We have committed to invest more than $2 billion building the critical renewable energy

infrastructure New Zealand needs to support economic growth,” says Contact CEO Mike

Fuge.

“Contact’s recent actions to secure gas for the medium term will support security of supply

for essential institutions like schools and hospitals, as well as Kiwi businesses and homes.

This way we can help them continue to operate and walk alongside them as they transition

to a renewable energy future.”
