A Geothermal Energy Hawaii - pros vs. cons

[Frank]

quote from pahoated "There is 38MW at that node. 30MW is coming out at 42 cents per kw-hr because it is under ACC contract, tied to the price of a barrel of oil. 8MW is coming out at non-ACC geothermal industry standard of 10 cents per kw-hr. Solomon did manage to get one bill through requiring more transparency from Hawaiian Electric. From that, we now know all of Puna uses about 6MW to 9MW peak load. What we don't know is how HELCO is metering the rates originating from a single node."

it'd be perfect if... "8MW is coming out at non-ACC geothermal industry standard of 10 cents per kw-hr." were applied to PUNA! whoo-tah!
