Geothermal

The problem was that rather than waiting for new technology which reinjected the waste heat, they vented it into the air, as was the case with the whole industry back then. The original well was so loud you could hear it for miles, and stink.

The community had every right to be pissed, but since then, and with a solid unbroken track record the community, (Hawaiian too) is coming around to see it's huge potential.

Now to get HELCO to address the transmission problems, and lower their rates!
