- You, the person considering having a DG system installed.
- The distributor, which is the local lines company that is already providing the electricity network (transformers, poles, wires and cables) in your area and connected to supply your premises.
- The retailer, which already supplies you with electricity and bills you for this delivered electricity service. Under NZ electricity market governance rules, the retailer is also responsible for providing a standards-compliant electricity meter that measures the amount of electricity you use.
- The metering services company, which owns meters and installs and maintains them when requested to do so by a retailer. Metering services companies in NZ are commonly owned by retailers and distributors but it helps the understanding of industry roles to treat them as a separate entity.
