that HELCO rate hike
#12
the economics of burying the lines will never work out

Capacity of wire "in free air" is much higher than wire in conduit, and the tall poles create a new class of skilled labor that's well-compensated due to the hazards.

Current battery technology already renders grid updates obsolete, but investing at the edges doesn't have enough payback (for them, not for you).
