Coal supply
New Zealand Steel's Glenbrook steel mill is the second largest domestic consumer of New Zealand coal, consuming approximately 800,000 tonnes a year.[2] Coal for the plant is supplied from the Huntly East mine and the Rotowaro Opencast Mine, accounting for 95%[3] and 25% respectively of the two mines. Both mines are owned by Solid Energy, a government-owned coal mining company.[4] (The Huntly Power Station, which is owned and operated by Genesis Energy, is the largest consumer).
