About Us

For over 40 years, Quasar has helped organisations across New Zealand design, monitor and optimise critical electrical infrastructure through specialist engineering and digital power solutions.

The People Behind Better Power.

Every project starts with understanding how your electrical network operates, what challenges you face, and what success looks like. Our engineers then design solutions that improve visibility, reliability and long-term operational performance.

As a Schneider Electric EcoXpert Master Partner, we combine leading technology with local engineering expertise to design, deliver and support integrated power management solutions.

What's in a Name?

Inspired by one of the universe's most powerful sources of energy.

A quasar is one of the brightest and most energetic objects in the known universe, emitting extraordinary amounts of energy that can be detected across billions of light years.

The name reflects what we strive to deliver every day.

Just as a quasar reveals what would otherwise remain unseen, Quasar helps organisations gain complete visibility of their electrical infrastructure.
