Published 08 January 2021
Maunu Substation is our first new substation since 2007, a $6.6m investment and is expected to be livened in February 2021.
The $6.6 million investment will support growth in the area (up to 5000 homes and businesses) and provides an alternate supply to Whangarei hospital and CBD.
It will improve reliability and quality of supply for the growing area in the Maunu suburb with a single 10MVA transformer, and room for a second 10MVA Transformer. The three new 11KV feeders have been installed and the current 33KV in the area has been undergrounded.
