Pacific Islands reach expands for Northpower <\/p>\n
7 June, 2012 <\/p>\n
An innovative Kiwi electricity and fibre company has announced it is extending its project work in the Pacific Islands. <\/p>\n
Northpower, Northland owned electricity lines distribution company, hopes to expand the impact it is having in the Pacific by securing more project work in the next 12 months. <\/p>\n
Speaking at ANZ Pacific Infrastructure Forum in Auckland today, Northpower outlined its growth curve for the Pacific Islands. <\/p>\n
Northpower Business Development General Manager Sean Horgan says the company has already assisted with an extensive expansion and upgrade of Samoas electricity network following the completion of one key project. <\/p>\n
A further two are underway in partnership with the Electric Power Corporation (EPC) of Samoa and these will be completed ahead of schedule later this year, says Mr Horgan. <\/p>\n
For some time now we have been targeting other Pacific Islands projects for further growth most of which are part of an Asian Development Bank or World Bank funded programme. <\/p>\n
We are currently assisting Meridian with the transmission circuit from the PV array to Tongas power network and we are also working with the Fiji Electricity Authority on a project. <\/p>\n
More are in sight within the Pacific Islands, says Mr Horgan. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
