Rewiring Speaking Events
Upcoming Events
Rewiring Aotearoa is bringing their Ecosystem Lead to Raglan to break down the ‘electrification tipping point’, show real-world examples and answer questions you have about how going electric is the smartest, cheapest, strongest and healthiest way to power your life.
Join Christchurch Envirohub's monthly drinks networking event, featuring Jenny, Data Generalist and Project Manager at Rewiring Aotearoa, for a timely and thought-provoking kōrero about electrification — and why Aotearoa is closer to an electric future than we might think.
We have the sunshine. We have the technology. So what could a renewable future for Aotearoa look like?
Join us as Jay Salzke, Ecosystem Lead at Rewiring Aotearoa, explores how electrifying our homes and communities could reduce power bills, strengthen our energy security, and help shape New Zealand's future.
Whether you're curious about renewable energy, rooftop solar, electrification, or simply want to understand the conversation better, everyone is welcome.
Hear from Electrify Te Tai Tokerau volunteers and hear the latest about EV tech and the upcoming expo.

Previous Events
Come and chat with community members who’ve electrified their homes, businesses and transport.
Learn how you can too – saving money and emissions.
In this Electrify Everything discussion event you’ll meet others in your community who’ve made their lives more fossil fuel free. When we come together and share knowledge, we all learn and get more powerful.
How electric are our homes really?
Our lights, dishwashers and ovens are mostly electric, but lots of households burn fossil fuels for water heating, space heating, driving, working outdoors and cooking.
When we electrify everything in our home, we replace some or all of these fossil fuel machines, over time, with much more efficient electric equivalents. Come and talk with local community members who have chosen to use more electric machines in their lives, saving money and emissions, future proofing their homes and businesses.

Hear about home, farm and transport electrification from Powerco, Toast Electric, locals and other experts.

The Passive House standard is about making buildings as energy efficient as possible, by improving the building fabric, before adding energy generation.
However, there is a tension between making buildings as energy efficient as possible and then electrifying them or electrifying everything and then working on energy efficiency later. Rewiring Aotearoa have been doing some excellent work advocating for electrifying machines across the motu and have looked into this issue from their perspective.
Our buildings are machines; small and large, they are numerous in New Zealand. If we electrify everything should we make our machines as efficient as possible too?
We intend having a educational, fun filled discussion about the way forward for our Aotearoa abodes.
Find out how you can reduce your bills and slash your emissions by upgrading your fossil fuel machines to the electric equivalents available today, and powering them with solar and batteries for more self-sufficiency.
