About Natural Systems Ltd

Natural Systems (NSL) is rated as the most exciting environmental technology company in New Zealand by the National Business Review (March 2008).

NSL was established by three passionate men, who had a shared vision of the need for sustainable energy solutions.

From early beginnings they identified market opportunities for the generation of energy from biomass in the New Zealand dairy industry. With nurturing and development it has become a significant project on a major North Canterbury Landcorp dairy farm.

The agriculture sector is a major user of energy. This is especially so for dairy farmers whose electrical costs in the dairy shed are significant including pumps, water heating, chillers and vacuum pumps. In addition there is a requirement for improved effluent processing and disposal from the dairy shed out to the paddock. The decision was made therefore to develop a way of using a source of energy readily available on the farm but currently underutilised.

We are the recognised leaders in farm-scale grid-connected biogas cogeneration in New Zealand.
