Power Lines

Safety

At Waipā Networks, we care deeply about the safety of our community. Trees growing too close to power lines and other electrical conductors can put you and your loved ones at risk of harm. Additionally, they can cause power cuts or voltage issues that can affect the entire community. You must never attempt to carry out tree maintenance on live power lines.

That’s why we’re proud to offer a specialised arborist division, Waikato Tree Services, which provides a full range of tree maintenance services to the greater Waikato region. Our team of experienced professionals can help you ensure your property is safe and secure from any potential electrical hazards caused by trees.

We understand your safety is paramount, so we’re offering a free quote for any work you need on your property. So, if you need tree maintenance services, please visit our trusted partner’s website at www.waikatotrees.co.nz and request a quote today. We’re here to help keep you and your community safe!

Solar Energy

Efficiency

At Waipā Networks, we believe in harnessing the sun’s power to generate clean, renewable energy for a better tomorrow. Solar panels are a fantastic way to not only reduce your power bills but also reduce your carbon footprint.

We understand that the initial cost of solar panels may seem daunting, but the long-term benefits are undeniable. Over time, they will pay for themselves and even generate more savings for you.

By installing solar panels on your roof or in a north-facing location, you can take advantage of the abundant sunshine in rural and urban areas. Don’t worry if you experience cloudy days; solar panels can still generate electricity even in less sunny weather.

At Waipā Networks, we practice what we preach. We have installed 10kW of solar panels at our depot in Te Awamutu. Our commitment to renewable energy reflects our belief that every little bit helps to create a brighter and more sustainable future.

Camera

At Waipā Networks, we understand that safety and security are top priorities for any community. IP cameras are beyond traditional security cameras. With IP cameras, you can connect to the internet and view them from anywhere, at any time. This means you can watch your property while you’re away or share the camera feed with someone you trust to watch over your home.

We know that feeling secure in your home is essential, and IP cameras are a great way to achieve that peace of mind. Whether you’re concerned about potential intruders, want to monitor your children or pets, or want to keep an eye on your property, IP cameras offer a simple and effective solution.

Smart Door

At Waipā Networks, we understand the importance of keeping your home safe and secure. Smart Door solutions are designed to make your life easier and faster.

We know that keypad door locks have been around for a while, but did you know that now more affordable options are available? You can choose from fingerprint, Bluetooth, and Wi-Fi-enabled devices that are just as reliable but won’t break the bank.

With the added convenience of a camera and speaker, you can now communicate with visitors and unlock the door for them, even when you’re not at home. It’s the perfect solution for busy families or those always on the go.

Security Lighting

Efficiency

At Waipā Networks, we understand the importance of keeping your home safe and secure. That’s why we want to share valuable information about security lighting and efficiency with you.

Did you know that security lighting with movement sensors is a fantastic way to protect your home while keeping energy consumption low? By using these lights, you’ll only have them turned on when needed, saving you money on your power bill. And if you pair them with energy-efficient light bulbs, you can further reduce your power requirements.

However, it’s essential to ensure that your security light isn’t too sensitive, as this can cause it to stay on for longer than necessary. Finding the right balance can keep your home safe and secure without wasting energy.

If you want to learn more about energy-efficient lighting, check out our Eco Bulb page. You’ll find helpful tips and information about the benefits of using these bulbs in your home. Working together as a community can make a difference and create a brighter future for everyone.

Wind Power

Innovation

At Waipā Networks, we’re committed to utilising one of the best natural resources in New Zealand to generate renewable electricity. With the wind’s power, we can positively impact our environment and create a sustainable future for generations to come.

One of the great things about wind turbines is that they can be used on a small scale, which makes them perfect for local communities. As long as there is a constant wind speed, small wind turbines will continue to generate electricity. That means that wind power can keep our lights on and appliances running even on days when the sun isn’t shining.

To maximise the power of the wind, wind turbines are usually mounted high so that they are exposed to a more steady airflow. When the wind turns the rotor blades of the engine, electricity is generated, which can then be used to power homes and businesses.

At Waipā Networks, we’re committed to making distributed generation accessible and affordable. That’s why we’re excited to see small-scale wind turbines becoming more efficient and cheaper. By embracing innovation and investing in renewable energy, we can create a brighter future for ourselves and our planet.

So why not join us in harnessing the power of the wind? With distributed generation, you can actively participate in creating a cleaner, more sustainable energy future. Contact Waipā Networks today to learn more about how you can connect to distributed generation, including wind power.

Power Battery

At Waipā Networks, we believe in the power of clean energy and its potential to transform how we power our homes and communities. That’s why we’re excited to share the benefits of battery storage technology.

As you may know, solar panels are a fantastic way to generate clean and renewable energy. However, their effectiveness is limited by the availability of sunlight. Battery storage technology allows you to store the excess power generated during the day and use it when needed, such as at night.

Not only does this provide a reliable source of clean energy, but it can also help you save money on your energy bills. Using stored energy during peak demand times can avoid expensive energy rates and reduce your overall energy costs.

At Waipā Networks, we’re committed to helping our communities transition towards a more sustainable future. If you want to learn more about battery storage technology and how it can benefit you and your community, we encourage you to visit our Distributed Generation page. There, you’ll find more information about distributed generation and how it can help you contribute to a cleaner and more sustainable energy future.

Underground Cables

Safety

At Waipā Networks, we value the safety of our customers and our network assets above all else. That’s why we want to remind you of the importance of being aware of underground cables when digging.

We understand that it can be tempting to jump right into a DIY project or get started on some earthworks, but before you do, it’s crucial to take a moment and consider what might be hiding underground.

If you need to dig near underground cables or need help determining where they’re located, don’t take any chances. Contact your power company to organise a cable location. It’s a simple step that could save lives and prevent damage to valuable infrastructure.

Additionally, we highly recommend checking out the beforeUdig website. It’s a fantastic resource that provides safety guidance for everything from small DIY projects to large-scale earthworks. By checking if there are any cables, pipes, or other utility assets in the area, you’re ensuring that everyone and everything stays safe.

If you’re interested in making the switch, don’t hesitate to contact your electricity retailer today and request to receive your bills by email. Let’s work together to build a more sustainable and efficient community.
