HAWAIIAN ELECTRIC ASKED FOR ENERGY CONSERVATION BY CUSTOMERS FOR THE THIRD DAY RUNNING, on Wednesday. A statement from the utility directed to Hawai'i Island customers said, "Conservation efforts by residential and business customers prevented the need for rolling outages on Hawai'i Island Monday and Tuesday nights. Customers are asked to continue limiting electricity use from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. for the rest of this week.
"The evening peak demand is when electricity use is highest. Using less electricity from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. helps ensure enough power is available during those hours. Conservation methods include turning off air conditioners and unnecessary lighting, shutting off water heaters, and delaying activities like cooking, showering, laundry, and dishwashing."
Hawaiian Electric explained that "The request for conservation is prompted by the unexpected shutdown of the island's largest independent power producer, Hamakua Energy, due to the unavailability of ammonia used for pollution control. Hawaiian Electric's Hill Plant Unit No. 5 and Puna Steam Plant also are unavailable due to planned annual maintenance and repairs. These three plants normally generate 89 megawatts for the Hawai'i Island grid. In addition, wind resources are forecast to be lower than usual."
Hawaiian Electric forecasted that "Conservation likely will be needed all week. If necessary, rolling 30-minute outages will be initiated to protect the electric system and prevent loss of power to an even greater number of customers. Hawaiian Electric will notify customers in advance through social media. Please check @HIElectricLight on Twitter for updates."

She presented the Hiroshima Prefectural Library with two books -- Leilani Blessed and Grateful by Iolani School teachers Greg Bowman and Alan Suemori, illustrated by Jamie Tablason, and Snow Angel, Sand Angel by author, poet and educator Lois-Ann Yamanaka, illustrated by Ashley Lukashevsky.
The books given to the Japan library include educational facts about Hawai'i, Hawaiian activities for children, a glossary of Hawaiian words and information about Hawai'i's ten climate zones.
"I hope young readers and their families will come to the Hiroshima Prefectural Library and borrow these books to learn about Hawai'i, and perhaps visit us one day," said Amano-Ige.
The governor and First Lady are scheduled to return to Hawai'i on Sept. 3.

KU'IKAHI MEDIATION CENTER'S FINDING PEACE, GROWING SOLUTIONS event for September presents Fred Jandt on the topic Morality, Justice, and Conflict: What Do People Need to Accept a Resolution? The session is at noon on Thursday, Sept. 15 via zoom.
Jandt said, "One tool for helping people reach a resolution is to become sensitive to each person's moral reality, justice reality, and conflict reality; that is, their assumptions about how disagreements should be handled. Understanding these assumptions can often explain why parties can't reach agreements." In this talk, learn how to become aware of personal and others' expectations about how conflicts should be handled.
