June 3, 2024 – For the fifth straight year, Kauaʻi Island Utility Cooperative (KIUC) leads the State of Hawaiʻi in renewable generation, achieving 57.9% renewable for 2023.  This puts KIUC well ahead of the State of Hawaiʻi requirement of 40% by 2030, to be achieved by each electric utility as established by HRS § 269-92(a), as amended.

Kauaʻi Island Utility Cooperative (KIUC) once again leads the state in renewable generation: achieving 60.2% renewable for 2022.

“We continue to seek new ways to maximize the use of renewables and are working toward a new goal, set by our Board of Directors in January, to reach 100% renewable by 2033,” stated KIUC’s President and Chief Executive Officer, David Bissell. He noted that the KIUC strategic goal accelerates the State of Hawaiʻi timeline of reaching 100% renewable by 2045 by more than a decade.
