Holaniku – Founder’s Note
There’s a lot of green good happening here!
By Darren T. Kimura Keahole Solar Power Company’s Founder
TALKING green is so easily done these days with the panic over record breaking oil costs, high energy costs, global warming and climate change. It seems you can’t pick up a newspaper or turn on the TV without hearing someone TALKING big on going green. Sometimes I wonder “Where were these people a few years ago when being green wasn’t so cool? I also wonder what will come from all this green TALK?”
The green and clean mission for KSP began with ACTION and the construction of Holaniku at Keahole Point, the first renewable energy project at NELHA in 30 years and the first MicroCSP solar farm in the world! This project is helping change the future of Kona and the Big Island.
At Holaniku we have the home grown Hawaiian technology that is helping us become independent from foreign oil. We have the intelligence here in Kona that will make us the beacon for the rest of the world when it comes to clean and green power. Most importantly we are sending a powerful message to everyone that Kona is a place where Green Talk is meaningless. Kona is home to RENEWABLE GREEN ENERGY ACTION!
