Description

The Prime Minister set a goal for New Zealand to be more self-sufficient in energy. A growth strategy to bounce back from the 1978 recession resulted in billions of dollar being spent. Just why did THINK BIG happen?   A few years later, new market-led economic theory helped create the nation we know today. Under ROGERNOMICS, State-owned enterprises were formed and the energy companies were sold.    Another tumultuous period awaits as the challenge of climate change is confronted. Billions of dollars will again be needed it achieve a new goal of zero carbon.   History can provide useful insights.  

Author Biography:

Before moving into executive leadership roles in the energy sector, John Boshier was the Assistant Secretary of Energy in the New Zealand Government during the 1980s. He worked closely with Ministers from both parties and this experience proved invaluable in writing Power Surge. John has also been involved with the electricity industry in Australia and a director of energy companies. A fellow of Engineering New Zealand and a Harkness fellow, John was a resident scholar at the Stout Centre for New Zealand studies which helped his research. This is John's second book.
