What will it take to electrify the Hawaiian economy?
Learn more in a recently published report - Assessment of the Scope of Tasks to Completely Phase out Fossil Fuels in Hawaiʻi.
Our co-authored report, three years in the making and in collaboration with the Geological Survey of Finland’s (GTK) Dr. Simon Michaux, is now available. This report aims to establish baseline, scenario-driven models for the electrical power required to electrify the Hawaii economy without using fossil fuels.
Our Mission
Our mission is to enable Hawaiʻi's economic, social, and environmental revival through a just transition to sustainable, 100% locally-sourced renewable energy.
This will allow us to be energy independent and resilient, create jobs and new economic opportunities, and contribute meaningfully to climate action.
We enable this through an inclusive and equitable approach that balances community, environmental, and economic concerns.
