Hawaii Will Soon Get All Of Its Electricity From Renewable Sources
May 7, 2015, thinkprogress.org | “Hawaii is on its way to having the greenest grid in the nation. The state legislature sent a bill to the governor’s desk this week that moves the renewable portfolio standard (RPS) up to 100 percent by 2045 — which means that all electricity provided by the electric companies will have to come from renewable sources like solar and wind. Nationwide, electricity generation makes up about a third of all carbon emissions.”
Hawaii’s grid could be a model for the nation and the world, supporters say.thinkprogress.org
