Electricity information is collected from a number of sources, including Statistics New Zealand, the Electricity Authority, and generators. Some generator supplied information is collected only on a March year basis so figures for the most recent year will always be provisional estimates. Values include generation from cogeneration plants. One gigawatt hour is 0.0036 Petajoules (PJ).
