US-based surf park developer Aventuur won approval to develop a New Zealand project promising year-round access to waves warmed by heat from a nearby data center.
Consent to proceed was issued by a panel appointed by the Environmental Protection Agency, the regulator said Wednesday in Wellington. As well as the surf lagoon and the data center operated by phone company Spark New Zealand, there will be a solar farm to power the site.
