• Isolated grid systems with no interisland connections
•Significant transmission and distribution issues - sparse system, mountainous terrain.
• Intermittency of wind and solar and substantive difference between peak load and base load leads to curtailment of renewable energy sources
• Excellent test-bed for modern grid technologies
Hawaii Clean Energy Initiative (HCEI) Rationale and Objectives
ObjectivesThe State of Hawaii and US DOE launched HCEI in January 2008 to help transform Hawaii to a 70% clean energy economy by 2030 and reap economic and environmental benefits:
• Increasing Hawaii’s economic and energy security
• Fostering and demonstrating Hawaii’s innovation
• Developing Hawaii’s workforce of the future
• Becoming the clean energy model for the U.S. and the world
RationaleHawaii is, by far, the most petroleum-dependent state in the U.S. Hawaii is burdened with high energy prices that have dramatic and potentially devastating impacts on the State’s economyHawaii is blessed with excellent renewable energy resources and climate
Hawaii The most petroleum-dependent state in the US is on track to increase its clean energy (efficiency and renewables) to 70% by 2030 and will have the greatest penetration of variable renewables on a grid in the US

HELCO Grid SystemInitial Study Site (2007)
• Isolated grid, ~ 200MW peak demand• High penetration of renewables including geothermal, wind, and
solar• Imbalances between demand and generation results in frequency
error• Small frequency bias, 2-3.5 MW/0.1 Hz• Loss of generation can result in underfrequency load shed• Increased renewables (intermittent) reduces availability of units to
regulate voltage and frequency• Limited or no forecasting available• Impacts of intermittend renewables are system and operator
