04/13/2023 Kauai Energy Transformation

We pride ourselves on being good stewards of the land here on Kauai

and on being connected…


Our energy is extracted from the earth…

But far from our own shores


In a process that is almost completely disconnected from us…

It is then delivered to our small island…


As it is burned in our power plants…

Most of us never even see it


And delivered instantly to our homes and businesses…

Are we truly connected to our energy use?


We all rely on it…

but how often do we really think about it?


And now we are waking up to the challenges of a changing world…

Our community will undoubtedly respond…


As it has in the past

So let us take heart in Hawaii’s rich energy history…


As well as in our recent accomplishments…



But how we achieve it…will have a tremendous impact on when we achieve it.

There is little doubt that we will achieve a 100% clean energy future here…

The real challenge is to preserve both what we value here on Kauai…


And to live up to and perpetuate our valuesin the global context
