And yes, I'd love to see geothermal tripled or even quadrupled in size. And there are also other areas where it could be developed. However, having said that, if geothermal were to be done in any other place other than where it is right now, the grid tie in would add a whole new layer of complexity.

Where are these other areas, in your opinion?
There is no issue with grid tie in anymore than any other energy project on the island.
For starters, I think the areas identified by the Geothermal Permitted Interaction Group (PIG) are a good place to start. Humu’ula area on Maunakea and Upper Kawaihae on Kohala were identified by them. Also, this is on DHHL which could be a good thing, or a complete and total disaster. With Trask on board, maybe some logic could prevail.

Also, just adding that I don’t think, at least at this point, expecting geothermal to power the whole state via underwater cables to a main plant(s) here on the Big Island is really a feasible thing. But if geothermal is developed elsewhere the grid tie in could be a bit challenging. And yes, it could be the same with any other power generation source added, but you could build another oil/gas power plant on Banyan Drive and tie it in quite easily, but adding another geothermal plant, or even solar could raise the complexity. That’s all I’m saying.
But also expanding geothermal power where it is already is makes any tie in complexity go to zero.

Seems to me, you’re the one whining. Also, since I retired, I can’t bill you several hundred dollars an hour. And one would think they would realize that the little embedded links you so prolifically use really confirm and prove my entire point.
One would think. So, here, try this

Further, I did some more digging. I found your 4th grade talent show performance video. You really rocked it!

TomK, MyManao, your inability to move your bickering to this thread is tiring. Perhaps you could just use this thread for all commentary by default?
