Alternative Energy

HB1003 & SB1866:Introduced by majority of House and Senate

Creates HNEI in StatuteAuthorizes fund to be managed by HNEI,

with advisory committees, to be investedin promising alternative energy technologies.

Did not appropriate funds (surprising last night outcome)

Clean Rooms

•LEONIDAS Mission Goals– On-call hyperspectral imaging of target areas using 30-kg microsat platform– Satellite-satellite data and command transfers– Inexpensive rapid-response launch vehicle development for 300-kg payload to 400 kmorbit.– Satellite development and testing; payload integration at UH.– Sustainable satellite integration and launch activity through PMRF/UH partnership.

•LEONIDAS Partners– HIGP/SOEST, College of Engineering (hyperspectral instruments, satellite-satellite communications, payload test and integration)– PMRF (launch venue)– ATK or Sandia National Lab (launch provider)– SurreySat/BAE Systems (30-kg launch platform)

Monitoring the Coastal Regions of Pacific Islands:

An Integrated Plan for Oahu, Hawaii

Lead Principal Institution: University of Hawaii, School of Ocean & Earth Science & Technology

This proposed ocean observing system will focus on the southern shore of the island of Oahu

(75% HI population; HNL- Capital & major tourist destination; Pearl Harbor- HQ Pacific Cmd.):

Comprises:

a) regional & coastal observations; b) modeling; c) data management & product development

Will expand, implement, and integrate ocean observing and forecasting efforts in 4 projects:

Biennium Budget (FY08-09) adds: Ocean Observing: $750K/yr for 6 faculty + turnover savings of $350K for equipment (buoys, cluster, EARs, coastal ops.)If 2 FTE added, propose to hire 4 faculty and 4 techs (actually pool of 8 techs at 50%)

Small Satellites Program: $80K, 1 faculty in FY09

Coconut Island Support Staff (4 FTE): $213K

Developing with CoEng, U. Alaska, UW-APL & UPR a $3M/yrDHS proposal for Center of Excellence in Maritime Awarenesswith Roy Wilkens as Center Director under Jim Gaines as P.I.
