Community
Mighty River Power is in the business of generating and selling energy – electricity and gas. As we go about it, we interact with many different stakeholders - our employees, customers, suppliers, Maori as landowners and guardians of environmental resources, neighbours near generation sites, groups who use rivers and lakes for sport, recreation and water supplies, regulators, policymakers, politicians, local bodies and consumers.
The fact the New Zealand needs a constant supply of energy doesn’t automatically give use the right to be in business. We recognise this. We take care to engage with all of our stakeholders in the way most appropriate for them.
We aim to have our operations strengthen local economic growth through investment, employment, and through supporting local businesses when we buy goods and services. We support community programmes and initiatives that protect the environment and develop the community.
We place importance on building strong relationships with the people and communities in which we operate. We depend on their goodwill and trust to sustain our ability to access and use resources, and ultimately, to sustain our business.
