Hawaii Energy Strategy (HES)

Document Actions
The HES program was initiated in 1992 to increase the understanding of Hawaii’s energy situation and to make recommendations towards the achievement of the State Energy Objectives as outlined in Chapter 226-18, Hawaii Revised Statutes.

HES 2007

HES 2007 will build upon previous work and the Governor’s "Energy for Tomorrow" initiative to chart a clear, executable path to:

  • Reduce the state’s dependence on oil;
  • Protect the environment;
  • Reduce negative economic impacts related to use of imported fuels;
  • Enhance renewable energy use and energy efficiency; and
  • Improve the security and reliability of Hawaii’s energy system.
