Talk:Meridian Energy

message: I removed "At that point the New Zealand Electricity market became vertically integrated, and effectively New Zealand lost its competitive market." as it is incorrect.
At the time NGC sold the OnEnergy customers base it was also vertically integrated, having generation in both the North and the South Islands.  Genesis and Meridian were both vertically integrated having customers in both islands.  The effect of the sale was to concentrate retail in the hands of 5 major Generator/Retailers and remove one competitive retailer from the market.  This certainly reduced the level of retail competition but it is incorrect to state that the competitive market was lost. Tiles 03:32, 22 May 2004 (UTC)

thread_title: Rework following Keith Turner's resignation

message: The Meridian website material on carbon neutral certification appears to only address the period up to 30 June 2008.  Has this been renewed, or left to expire?  Meridian seem to have been silent on this since early 2008.
During winter 2008, very low lake levels meant Meridian purchased electricity that had been generated in fossil fired power stations.  This would appear to contradict their carbon neutral claim in terms of all electricity retailed, although the hydro electricity generated by Meridian might still be carbon neutral. --Pakaraki (talk) 22:21, 1 November 2008 (UTC)

message: Hello,
My name is Karen and I work for Meridian Energy. I’m hoping someone might be able to advise me on getting the Wikipedia page on Meridian Energy reviewed and updated. Some of the current content is out of date and contains incorrect information, for example
- Meridian owns and operates seven hydroelectric power stations, not nine; Ohau A, Ohau B, Ohau C, Benmore, Aviemore, Waitaki and Manapouri. In 2009 Tekapo A and B were sold to Genesis Energy.
- Meridian owns and operates four NZ wind farms, not six; Te Uku, Te Apiti, West Wind and White Hill. Ross Island wind farm is owned and operated by Antarctica NZ. We also own and operate a single turbine in Wellington, Brooklyn turbine and we have another wind farm under construction outside Wellington, Mill Creek.
- Meridian owns and operates one wind farm in Australia, Mt Millar, with a second, Macarthur currently under construction. 
- Energy for Industry (EfI) and Whisper Tech are no longer subsidiaries of Meridian. Both EfI and Whisper Tech were sold in 2012.
 
What is the best way for the Wikipedia page to be review and edited?
Thanks for your help

thread_title:  Meridian Energy page is out-of-date 

message: Hello,
In my earier post I mentioned that Meridian is building a wind farm called Macarthur in Australia. This is incorrect, in June 2013Meridian sold their interest in Macarthur wind farm to Malakoff Corporation Berhad, a Malaysian power generator and retailer.
Mt Millar is currently under construction in Australia.
Sorry for the incorrect information.
