Pushing for a greener Hawai`i
Lt. Governor Aiona today visits Maui, where he will help open a symposium on tax-planning options at the King Kamehameha Golf Club. Hot topics include tax credits for energy-efficient homes as homeowners who buy solar systems have been eligible for a tax credit.
The symposium comes as the Administration has made energy security a statewide imperative. Under the Hawai`i Clean Energy Initiative, the state's goal is to generate -- by 2030 -- at least 70 percent of its power from such clean energy sources as wind, solar and biomass.
