Some of the options being consulted on by the Government would appear to also allow the continued use of small, lower-heat coal-fired boilers, but these do not appear to be the Government’s preferred option. Dairy giant Fonterra, which is a major coal user, has supported the idea of a ban and last week said it intended to stop using coal boilers by 2037, which would align it with the Government s proposal. But some smaller food producers had reported more concern about the potential impacts in the run-up to the Government’s announcement on Thursday. Tomatoes NZ general manager Helen Barnes said it had yet to study the proposal.

Government bans new coal-fired boilers, the second-largest source of energy-related emissions

The Government is also proposing to phase out existing coal boilers by 2037 and prohibit other new fossil-fuel boilers where suitable alternative technology exists and it is economically viable.  Fuel used in manufacturing and production is known as process heat. It s used to manufacture products such as milk powder, paper and metal, and generates around 8 percent of New Zealand s greenhouse gas emissions.  As the second-largest source of energy-related emissions after transport, process heat makes up about 27 percent of New Zealand s energy-related emissions.  Energy and Resources Minister Megan Woods says the ban will make a real difference to New Zealand s emissions profile.
