The offer is intended to take Dunedin to 20%, the maximum allowed under the Takeovers Code without an offer to buy all the shares.
Dunedin also announced a full takeover bid.
The Southland bid is headed by Martin Walton, whose company PowerNet has been running the Otago network for 18 months.
The consortium already owns a 20% stake.
The Dunedin offer promises shareholders continued local ownership, a three-year price freeze, no job losses and better service. It said its full bid would more than match the consortium's offer.
