Bill Currie and Tim Mepham from Powerhouse Wind win the innovation prize for the PowerCrate® at The New Zealand Agricultural Show in November 2023.
Powerhouse Wind stands at the forefront of renewable energy innovation in rural Aotearoa, delivering an unmatched combination of wind and solar energy solutions through their flagship products: the PowerCrate® and Thinair™.  

PowerCrate is a first-of-its-kind hybrid renewable energy module, integrating wind and solar power in a turnkey energy module for all seasons.  

This innovation is vital for rural and remote areas where traditional grid connections are unreliable or non-existent. PowerCrate is a sustainable energy solution for remote construction and telecommunications, lifestyle blocks and agriculture; it is an energy resilience solution in an increasingly uncertain climate.  

Powerhouse Wind is particularly proud of  Thinair - New Zealand's only commercial small wind turbine, a testament to more than a decade of dedicated development and testing. 

Featuring an elegant single-bladed design with a patented teetering hub, it exemplifies their commitment to robust, fit-for-purpose solutions for New Zealand and its gusty winds. 

Powerhouse Wind  leverages Dunedin's engineering ecosystem for manufacturing while ensuring nationwide field service.  

Recent successes include the deployment of PowerCrates across the South Island and dynamic showcases at major agricultural events. They will next feature in the Sustainability Hub at Fieldays® in Mystery Creek, Hamilton.  

Powerhouse Wind plans to expand production in response to growing global demand for energy resilience, and is inviting investment and business partnerships, as they solidify a pivotal role in rural energy transition.
