PHOTOVOLTAIC RENEWABLE ENERGY

The Basis of Our Commitment

PV produces clean, reliable, firm power.

PV production is during daylight hours.

Maui Electric Company system demand during peak and off-peak hours is capable of integrating PV power.

Delivery of PV power to the Maui Electric system during peak and off-peak hours requires mutual understanding, collaboration and mutual agreement.

PV power will be a major part of transitioning to renewable energy.

PHOTOVOLTAIC SITES

Land whether privately owned or special purpose is the most

widely used platform for construction of a photovoltaic power

plant.

A land is becomingly ever increasingly scarce. New and

innovative ways need to be explored.

The major criteria to be met is provided in the following two

maps.
