Abstract: New Zealand is an island country in the southwestern Pacific Ocean, about 1,500 kilometres (km) east of Australia. It consists of two large islands, the North Island and South Island, and several smaller ones, of which Stewart Island is the largest. The population was about 5.1 million on 31 March 2022 (Statistics New Zealand, 2022). Although it has some light and heavy industry, foreign trade heavily depends on agriculture, tourism, forestry, and fishing. In 2020, New Zealand had a nominal gross domestic product (GDP) of about $194.7 billion in United States dollars, (constant 2015 US dollars [US$]) or about $38,000 per capita. This chapter shows the progress of net zero emissions by comparing several scenarios: business-as-usual (BAU), alternate policy scenario (APS), and the low carbon energy transition (LCET) scenario until 2050.
