About
Drawing on Ben’s 20-plus years of local and international experience across the electrical, solar, battery and EV industries, Ben and Emily built Riverline around a clear purpose: helping people make their homes safer.
This belief shapes Riverline’s work, from checking existing circuits to modernising switchboards and planning electrical upgrades. The approach is straightforward: explain things clearly, focus on what matters, and carry out practical improvements that suit the home and the people living in it.
As homes change, those improvements should also leave room for what comes next, whether that is a renovation, new appliances or EV charging.
For Ben and Emily, it comes back to safer circuits, thoughtful work, and helping people protect what matters.
Our mission: Safer circuits for Otago homes.
As your home evolves, its electrical system needs to keep pace. Adding a heat pump, EV charger, solar, induction cooking, or planning a renovation can place new demands on existing circuits and use capacity that may be needed later.
We help you understand how well your circuits are protected, how much room your switchboard has, and what may need attention. From there, we create a clear pathway to improve safety now while preserving capacity for future additions.
That means you can modernise in the right order and invest with confidence, knowing your home is better prepared for today and whatever comes next.
Power Integrity.
