Te Ara Hiko is Carbona's flagship renewable carbon project and represents an important step in New Zealand's industrial energy transition.

​

Located in the central North Island, the project will utilise sustainably sourced plantation forests to produce renewable Biocoal and Biocarbon for industrial customers in New Zealand and Japan.

​

Designed around proven European technology and an existing brownfield industrial site, Te Ara Hiko combines strategic location, established infrastructure and renewable forestry resources to create a highly scalable project platform.

​

Te Ara Hiko represents more than a single production facility.

​

It establishes the foundation for Carbona's long-term vision of developing a portfolio of renewable carbon projects that support industrial energy transition across New Zealand and selected Asia-Pacific markets.
