在夏威夷岛生产清洁可再生能源

檀香山（2020年10月23日）– Former Hawai‘i governors George Ariyoshi, John Waihe‘e, Ben Cayetano, and Neil Abercrombie have joined together to offer strong support of the Honua Ola Bioenergy facility and are urging the biomass plant be allowed to go forward and begin producing clean renewable energy for Hawai‘i. The former governors provided the following joint statement in support of Honua Ola.

“We believe Honua Ola Bioenergy, the green energy plant in Pepe‘ekeo designed and built following government approvals to produce renewable energy for decades to come, will reduce the state’s dependence on fossil fuels, help Hawai‘i to combat climate change, and provide vitally needed jobs to support the economic recovery of the Big Island.

“We champion the use of all renewable energy technologies to help Hawai‘i achieve its goal of having 100 percent renewable energy on the grid by 2045. We are in agreement that Honua Ola should be recognized for the central role its replenishable biomass technology will have in supporting Hawai‘i’s continuing efforts to reduce the effects of climate change on our current and future quality of life.

“我们强烈支持拥有多种形式的可再生能源电力 - 太阳能，风，生物量，地热电系统，水电等技术 - 以互相互补的方式工作，具有从夏威夷环境中去除化石燃料的最终目标。我们不同意认为各种形式的可再生能源应互相竞争，以替代化石燃料。

“对我们州未来最重要的是我们的'āina和我们的Keiki最重要的是降低化石燃料和气候变化的影响。夏威夷需要各种可再生能源资源，尽快取代化石燃料厂。beplay体育app苹果beplay全网下载Honua Ola有助于实现这一目标。

“我们感谢Honua Ola的beplay体育app苹果beplay全网下载奉献精神，种植和种植的树木比种植在以前的糖地的桉树商业森林的收获还要多，他们承诺该项目将是负碳的。Honua Ola还将利用合beplay体育app苹果beplay全网下载欢树等入侵树种作为燃料生产清洁能源，这将进一步有助于保护夏威夷的环境。

“我们赞扬了霍鲁阿奥拉在前五年内通过国家森林基金会植beplay体育app苹果beplay全网下载入超过300万棵树，并将支持与夏威夷火山国家公园的朋友一大堆种植项目。

“Honua Ola has built a biomass power plant on the basis of a power purchase agreement previously approved by the PUC that is now 99 percent complete and will produce 15 percent of the Big Island’s electricity needs while eliminating the need for an estimated 250,000 barrels of imported oil each year.

“与其他替代能源不同，Honua Ola将每周七天24小时提供24小时，即使太阳不闪beplay体育app苹果beplay全网下载耀，风不会吹。通过提高大岛电网的稳定性，Honua Ola将支持停用和退出现有化石燃料发电机的努力。beplay全网下载beplay体育app苹果

“我们相信Honua Obeplay体育app苹果beplay全网下载la的生产干净，可再生能源的能力符合夏威夷未来的最佳利益。在夏威夷最高法院批准的Haira Ola和夏威夷电气之间达成beplay体育app苹果beplay全网下载的协议应该得到尊重和肯定。“

前州长的支持是夏威夷最高法院考虑了Honua Ola的要求，该法院在7月9日撤销公用事业委员会（PUC）的决定，防止新建的设施经营。beplay全网下载beplay体育app苹果10月7日，夏威夷最高法院命令PUC和其他缔约方在20天内向Honua Ola的要求提交书面答案。beplay全网下载beplay体育app苹果

Located in Pepeʻekeo on the Hāmākua Coast of Hawaiʻi Island, the Honua Ola Bioenergy project (also known as Hu Honua Bioenergy) is a state-of-the-art facility that will provide renewable, firm energy 24/7, support Hawai‘i’s clean energy goals, revitalize East Hawai‘i Island’s agricultural sector, and create permanent, long-term jobs for the next 30 years to help support the island’s economy.
