New Zealand and Chile are talking about working more closely together on renewable energy.
Energy Minister Gerry Brownlee and his Chilean counterpart Ricardo Raineri Bernain met in Wellington today and discussed the growing importance of the energy relationship between the two countries.
"New Zealand and Chile are geographically similar, with common potential for the development of renewable energies," Mr Brownlee said after the meeting.
