Inspiring and empowering Queenstown to electrify
Electrify Queenstown is a three-day event that brings together community, business, government, and industry to accelerate the transition to a low-emissions, electrified future.
Our 2025 event was our biggest yet—with booked out speaker sessions, national media coverage, and incredible kōrero across key topics such as energy, transport, tourism, policy, and climate resilience. From keynote speakers, politicians and expert panels to hands-on demos, electric field trips, and grassroots conversations, Electrify Queenstown 2025 showed what’s possible when we come together with purpose.
Check out the 2025 event highlights. We’re already working on what’s next. Join us in May 2026 to be part of the energy.
