$50K boost for energy efficiency projects at UH Mānoa

UH Mānoa’s Green Revolving Fund has received $50,000 through the Ulupono Fund at the Hawaiʻi Community Foundation.

Kauaʻi Community College dedicated a new photovoltaic system that is already helping to reduce its electricity bill.

Each PV system is designed to accommodate four people with four waterproof AC outlets, four wireless charging stations and lighting.

Spanning more than 178,000 square feet, the array will provide shade for cars and pedestrians on the lower campus parking structure.

ʻIole is a nonprofit place-based research center and living scientific laboratory in Kohala on Hawaiʻi Island.

Hawaiʻi CC celebrated the installation of its first solar EV charging station on campus, the first portable solar charging station on Hawaiʻi Island.

Acclaimed energy expert Leah Stokes will focus on energy, environment and climate policy.

Tens of millions of dollars in the new federal budget will help fund many University of Hawaiʻi programs and projects.

UH Maui College is a Hawaii Green Business Program awardee.

The report concludes, “We all want solar power to succeed but it requires planning rather than reacting.”
