Beachboy, you're dead on right, this policy is a throwback to the Jimmy Carter days, and is supposed to help the new alternatives get it together. But when they do (like Geo), HECO won't give em a big enough hunk of volume to help us. I'd like to see the majority list of stockholders in the Matson Mafia.
However Matson dropped it's shipping rates because hitting the mainland with exhorbinant rates gets em into problems as people on the mainland would squak like hell if they didn't drop with fuel cost. So does that mean YB is dropping, nope or the HECO HELCO & MECO. That only hurts Islanders and they can take it!
