Give a "renewable" gift for the holidaysOur holiday wish list is short and sweet: A clean energy future for Hawai'i. This year, give a meaningful gift that directly supports programs to advance Hawai‘i toward energy self-sufficiency with a tax-deductible donation on behalf of a loved one or friend. And they'll have something to unwrap: We’ll send a unique Blue Planet clean energy present to your gift recipient along with a personalized card. |
Who's in to feed-in?HECO, MECO, and HELCO have begun accepting applications for Hawai‘i’s feed-in tariff. Interested parties with small-scale renewable energy systems that qualify as Tier 1 and Tier 2 projects can apply online at www.hecofitio.com. As of Nov. 29, there have been four applications submitted on Oahu, and five each on Maui and the Big Island, with a total of 3,118 kw of renewable power from local homes and businesses that will potentially feed back into the grid. What's the feed-in tariff? Learn more on our FIT "Frequently Asked Questions" page. |
