A plan for District 29 · and all of Hawaiʻi

Free electricity for locals.

Hawaiʻi sits on abundant sun and geothermal heat — and pays some of the highest power bills in the nation for imported oil and gas. We can change that: put a small slice of the state's reserves to work building power the public owns, and send the savings back to local families.

2045 clean-energy goal — hit early, not late
½ of residents still have no solar — we change that
No LNG — no locking in imported fossil fuels
The plan

Power we own. Bills we can afford.

1
Publicly-owned solar and geothermal
Put a small portion of the state's abundant reserves to work building solar and geothermal projects the public owns. Power we own is power we control — the returns come back to residents as lower bills instead of leaving as profit and imported-fuel costs.
Public ownership Solar Geothermal

Hit our 2045 clean-energy goal early
Hawaiʻi is already committed to 100% renewable electricity by 2045. With public investment driving new generation, we can beat that deadline — locking in clean, homegrown power years ahead of schedule.
100% renewable Ahead of schedule
3
Stop importing price-volatile fossil fuels — no LNG
Every barrel of imported oil ties our bills to a global market we can't control. This plan ends that dependence and rejects new liquefied natural gas (LNG) — no locking Hawaiʻi into another imported fossil fuel just as we're breaking free of the first.
No LNG Energy independence Stable bills
4
A dedicated roof-repair fund for climate readiness
Create a dedicated fund to help families repair their roofs — climate readiness that pays off twice. A sound roof stands up to bigger storms, and it's the foundation any home needs before it can safely carry solar panels.

5
Subsidized solar for the half of us without any PV
About half of Hawaiʻi residents still have no solar at all — often renters and working families who couldn't afford the upfront cost. Subsidize rooftop PV so those households finally share in the cheapest power in the islands, not just the ones who could already pay.

Public power, public benefit
