Today, Hawaii will close its only coal-fired power plant. Commisioned in 1992, the AES power plant on the island of Oahu produced as much as 20% of the island’s electricity and emitted 1.5 million tonnes of CO2 each year Hawaii will rely on renewable technologies including geothermal energy and solar to replace AES’s generation capacity. These include large-scale solar and battery projects such as Mililani I, which delivers up to 39MW of power. In 2015, Hawaii was the first US state to pass a law requiring 100% of electricity to be generated by clean sources by 2045. The closure of the AES plant represents a major milestone.
