Hawaii’s Energy Supply, Demand, Policy and the Future
Hawaii Nickname: Aloha State Capital: Honolulu Motto: The life of the land is perpetuated in righteousness 2010 Population: 1,360,301 Land Area: 6,423 sq. miles Most petroleum dependent state in the U.S.! YAY! www.infoplease.com
Reserves? • Crude Oil - N/A • Dry Natural Gas– N/A • Natural Gas Plant Liquids - N/A • Recoverable Coal at Producing Mines – N/A *Over 90% of all energy used in Hawaii is imported from FF’s* www.eia.gov
Where about? www.articgas.gov
What is the use? Sector: (billion Btu)Share of U.S. 1.) Transportation = 133,972 0.5% 2.) Industrial = 64,218 0.2% 3.) Commercial = 39,814 0.2% 4.) Residential = 34,152 0.2% www.eia.gov

Petroleum Facts 46.3 million barrels of petroleum were imported for Hawaii's total energy use over the past year. -That's 36 barrels of petroleum for every man, woman and child living in Hawaii. $5.09 billion left the state last year to pay for imported petroleum; $4,000 for every person living in Hawaii. -That's like buying 10 million roundtrip tickets to Las Vegas. 11.3 million barrels of petroleum were burned by the Hawaii utilities last year to make electricity. -11.3 million barrels of petroleum x $79/barrel = $893 million. That would pay a year's tuition for the 13,952 undergraduate students at the University of Hawaii at Manoa 8 times. Hawaii ranks #1 in electric energy costs (kWh): -Hawaii avg= 39.40 -Remaining U.S. avg = 11.50 www.hawaiienergy.com
Who is in control?2 primary utilities service power to the state HawaiinElectric Industries: • supplies power to 95% of Hawaii’s population through its electric utilities, Hawaiian Electric Company, Inc., Hawaii Electric Light Company, Inc. and Maui Electric Company. Kauai Island Utility Cooperative: - Not-for-profit generation, transmission and distribution cooperative owened and controlled by the members it serves. Currently serves more than 32,000 electric accounts throughout Kauai.
Public Utilities Commision • Regulates all public service company’s in state • Prescribes rates, tariffs, charges, fees and rate of earnings • Issues guidelines for general management of utility business • Acts on requests for acquisition, sale, mergers and consolidations IOW… The PUC control’s the control. www.puc.hawaii.org
A Renewable Future With a goal to generate 40% clean energy, the Hawaii State Energy Office plans to: (1) align government regulations and policies with clean energy goals (2) increase certainty in the process for developing renewable energy (3) deploy renewable generation and grid infrastructure (4) explore next generation technologies and new applications of existing technologies. www.energy.hawaii.gov/programs
Achieving Efficiency • The state’s overall goal for energy efficiency is to meet the Energy Efficiency Portfolio Standard of 30% by reducing electricity demands by 2030. In order to meet this goal Hawaii will: • Align the efficiency regulatory policy framework with clean energy goals • Support the retrofitting of residential and commercial existing buildings • Strengthen new construction policies and building codes • Identify non-building related energy efficiency measures. www.energy.hawaii.gov/programs
Undersea Cable Effective July 1, 2012. Establishes a regulatory structure for the installation and implementation of an interisland high voltage electric transmission cable system and for the construction of on-island transmission infrastructure. HECO expected to release a request for proposals for 200 megawatts or more of renewable energy Proposals can use any viable technology although wind and solar are expected to be the primary proposals. www.civilbeat.com
