We join the Public Utilities Commission, Governor Abercrombie and our State Legislators in calling on HECO to lower utility rates, connect more rooftop solar and take swift, meaningful action to build a clean energy grid for Hawaii. In a recent ruling, the PUC gave HECO a deadline of August 26th, 2014 to develop a meaningful plan to address these issues. HECO has perpetuated our dangerous and outdated dependence on imported oil for too long. Now is the time to hold HECO accountable to act in the public’s best interest and ensure a clean energy future for Hawaii.
Why is this important?
I am concerned about the future of HECO. I think the public utility is important to all of us, and they are not moving to face the future fast enough. The recent problems with the delay of rooftop solar for a lot of people I know demonstrates how badly HECO needs to modernize.
