About PEET

Empowering those who will shape New Zealand's energy future.

The Power Engineering Excellence Trust (PEET) is a not-for-profit organisation established in 2002 by industry and academia to ensure a pipeline of power engineering talent. Our members represent many sectors of the electricity industry, including generation, transmission, distribution, contracting, consulting and manufacturing. See our Members and our current Trustees.

PEET is a Charitable Trust under the NZ Charitable Trusts Act of 1957; it is unregistered for GST and recognised by the IRD as a "Donor" organisation.

Any donations made by organisations to a "Donor" organisation are eligible for a 100% tax rebate.

Mission

We inspire and enable tomorrow's power engineering talent by sharing responsibility, knowledge and opportunity across academia and industry.

What we do

PEET activities are supported through a collaborative partnership with the EPECentre, our student interface at the University of Canterbury (UC), delivered as part of the EPECentre's area of operation Education & Outreach and its support to develop careers in the power industry.
