There are a couple of problems with Geothermal;
1. They built their plant a quarter mile upwind of an established
Subdivision.
2. It ties into HELCO's obsolete grid distribution system; which
insures that HELCO maintain their power monopoly.
There are also a few solutions to the above problems;
1. Unhook from the grid and install a flexible home power system.
Solar, wind and genset combo works great in most areas.
2. Look for further developments in home power systems. Home systems
are the future because they don't require an antique, expensive,
high maintenance, tree catching, distribution system. Future
developments could include; biofuel gensets that operate on
locally produced fuel, and small fuel cell systems.
3. As more people invest in home systems, HELCO's energy model
becomes more expensive and cumbersome.
There is an energy revolution happening and now is the time to get involved.
