Consumer defending contract to manage power switching

From Morning Report, 8:34 am on 21 July 2023

Consumer is defending its contract to manage power switching, which it says is going really well.

Consumer has the sole contract worth $1.4 million dollars a year from the Electricity Authority to do the work.

Another business, NZ Compare wants to take on the contract and its chief executive, Gavin Male, says there's good reason for them to.

Powerswitch manager at Consumer Paul Fuge spoke to Corin Dann.
