For only $48.00 a year, you can bail out HECO! - HiloJulie - 12-31-2024

Many thanks to Civil Beat for this article this morning. 

Plan To Bail Out HECO's Credit Rating Would Cost Customers $48 A Year - Honolulu Civil Beat

From linked article:

""Wakai said he’s aware that HECO’s proposal breaks down to “just $4” a month per household. But he said such seemingly small price increases are what have created Hawaii’s notoriously high cost of living."

"“After a while, ‘just, just, just’ adds up to ‘big, big, big’ for ratepayers,” he said."

That's right folks, just $4.00 a month. 
(Cue starving child pictures and abandoned flea infested puppies with melodramatic music please)

Go off-grid and don't look back! Actually, microgrids between neighbors would be cool, and and still probably more reliable than HECO!
