New Zealand and the Philippines share something in common, both countries are top geothermal power producers in the world. With New Zealand maximizing their geothermal energy resource and other renewable energy resources, it surely is interesting to know how they managed to have a large contribution from these sources into their energy mix. 

In the third session of the webEEnar, over 200 participants joined the event to learn about New Zealand’s renewable energy story. We are joined by an expert who is an academic and a leader in the renewable energy industry. Let us get to know her.
