Good News for the Big Island Electricity Supply
You might not think that the following information is important for you as a visitor to the Big Island or the Kohala Coast. Wrong! Actually, very wrong! With Hawaii being one of the states with the highest price for electricity (electricity is still generated the old way by burning fossil fuels!) but on the other hand, air conditioning being badly needed in all coastal areas, more so on the Kona and the Kohala Coast with their steady sunshine all year around, these high costs for electricity (AC!) reflect in a higher rate for your vacation rental home or condo. And who wants to pay each year more for his AC comfort when vacationing in Hawaii?!
New Big Island Wind Farm will be built
This seems to be the way to go. A new wind farm on South Point will be built. Fourteen 1.5-megawatt wind turbines will generate power for more than 10,000 Big Island homes when completed in March 2007. The blades are from India, the hubs from Germany and turbine towers from China. This "United Nations of turbine supply" will be landing at Hilo Harbor during the next few weeks and then heading to South Point for installation in the newest renewable energy facility in the state.
Read more in our Big Island 'West Hawaii Today' newspaper on this new wind farm at South Point. By the way, you find in West Hawaii Today everything and anything about Hawaii Big Island. So, make it your daily read when you want to stay connected with the island you love. Aloha and a hui hou, Pua www.kohalacoastweb.com
