Christchurch Free Wi-Fi has reached a major milestone this week with over 100,000 connections from locals and visitors alike who have embraced the free service in the central city.

In June, we began installing solar panels on some of the buildings that power our fibre network, known as Central Offices. This was an important project for our sustainability goals as we work towards achieving net-zero emissions by 2030.

Research released today by Chorus, Enable, Tuatahi First Fibre and Northpower Fibre has confirmed that fibre is the best broadband option for consumers concerned about carbon emissions.
