Rotorua Museum paid $16,700 for diesel-generated power while closed

Rotorua Museum is paying high prices for power, despite having closed doors. Photo: LDR / Rotorua Daily Post A Rotorua Lakes Council spokeswoman said the generator ran for approximately four weeks after the main power supply cables failed, due to damage from heat and hydrogen sulphide corrosion. A temporary power supply has been put in place at a further cost of $7079. Council arts and culture manager Stewart Brown said the generator was used while contractors dug up the failed cables and installed temporary power connections. Power to the closed museum was needed to enable critical building services to continue, such as alarm systems, he said.
