Contact signs new Maui gas purchase agreement
Contact Energy Limited (Contact) announced today that it has entered into a new agreement with Maui Development Limited
(MDL) to purchase between 22 and 26 petajoules of gas over a two-to-three year period. The new agreement replaces an
agreement that expired at the end of 2014.
Contact’s Chief Generation and Development Officer, James Kilty, said “The new Maui agreement, together with our
existing contracted gas and reserves at our Ahuroa Gas Storage facility, provides Contact with additional flexibility
around the way we use gas to run our thermal power stations. It’s pleasing to have reached this agreement with MDL which
extends our close relationship.”
