The Titiokura/Te Waka Wind Farm was a wind farm project abandoned by Unison Networks and Roaring 40s. It was to be located adjacent to SH5 in the Te Pohue - Titiokura area, 35 km west of Napier, New Zealand.[1]

Stage 1 of the project, Titiokura, gained resource consents in 2006 after an Environment Court appeal. This stage is for 15 wind turbines, producing up to 45 MW.

Stage 2, Te Waka, was to have a capacity of up to 102 MW from 34 turbines.[2] The Environment Court declined this application, after the hearing was held in December 2008.[3] A revised proposal was prepared, this was declined by the Environment Court in February 2009.[1]

Early stages of the consent process were administered by the Hastings District Council and the Hawke's Bay Regional Council. Both stages of the wind farm are opposed by local iwi, Ngati Hineuru and Maungaharuru-Tangitu Society.[4]
