Kowhai Park is 400 hectares of land at Christchurch Airport that will be used to generate renewable energy. 
Phase one will deliver a 220-hectare solar array capable of generating 150 megawatts of electricity, enough to power 30,000 homes, on the airport campus. 
Australian renewable energy fund, Solar Bay, is committing $100 million to the development of Phase One. They say there is nothing else like this in New Zealand; it’s innovative, far ahead of its time and absolutely world leading in every sense.
