Reliable future-ready solutions for Utility Providers

As Aotearoa New Zealand moves toward a more sustainable, digitally connected future, the Utilities sector is under growing pressure to modernise legacy infrastructure while ensuring reliability, security, and customer trust. From power and water to waste and telecommunications, providers are responding to the demands of decarbonisation, climate adaptation, decentralised generation, and equitable service delivery — all while navigating resource constraints, compliance obligations, and evolving public expectations.

With more frequent extreme weather events, regional infrastructure disparities, and a national drive toward net-zero emissions, the need for resilient, smart, and secure utility systems has never been greater.

NEC has a long history supporting New Zealand’s critical infrastructure and public services. Our technologies in biometrics, digital identity, and secure networks help utility operators protect high-value assets, enable smart metering and IoT integration, and manage workforce and contractor access across distributed locations. From the top of the North Island to the deep South, we work with utility providers to co-design future-ready solutions that improve reliability, safety, and transparency — and support the national vision for a more sustainable and digitally empowered Aotearoa.
