 A Sustainable Energy Future for New Zealand by 2050

The New Zealand Transport Strategy states:

 "Sustainability: To ensure that transport is underpinned by the principles of sustainability and integration, transport policy will need to focus on improving the transport system in ways that enhance economic, social and environmental well-being, and that promote resilience and flexibility. It will also need to take account of the needs of future generations, and be guided by medium and long term costs and benefits."

 

New Zealand Energy Strategies 

The New Zealand Government has released two strategies, New Zealand Energy Strategy 2007 and New Zealand Energy Efficiency and Conservation Strategy 2007. Both of those strategies have transport related issues and are reproduced here.
