This blowout occurred in 1991.
It released about 2000 lbs of hydrogen sulfide and no one was seriously harmed.In the last 19 years there have been basically zero emissions.
Here is the amount of gasses released in the state in one year by fossil fuel electric plants in Hawaii.
Carbon Dioxide 9,045,661 metric tons
Sulfur Dioxide 21,284 metric tons
Nitrogen Oxide 21,618 metric tons
The price of electric on the Big Island next month will be 33 cents per kilowatt hour.PGV is going to uncouple their price from oil in future contracts.That should help lower the price.
