NEW Zealand's largest renewable electricity generator, Meridian Energy, is increasing its play in the Australian market with the appointment of an inaugural chief executive to develop the business. Meridian Energy said Ben Burge's selection came at an exciting time for the renewables sector in Australia. The government-owned enterprise owns the 700MW Mount Millar wind farm on the Eyre Peninsula in South Australia - and is a joint venture partner with AGL Energy in the $1 billion Macarthur wind farm in Victoria.
The former IBM Business Analytics partner said the company had "a unique opportunity to be a leader in the sector". "A progressively improving regulatory environment and increasing focus on renewable energy and energy efficiency created opportunities in Australia", Mr Burge said.
