Heco should have provided generators and fuel in addition to the repairs.
Time for another company to provide power for Hawaii. Instead of this one company monopoly corruption.
People wonder why I live off grid.. sorry but I'm not going to be inconvenienced by a government that can't manage itself let alone the utilities..
Hawaii is turning into Puerto Rico!
only offering to pay out for damaged items, but not lost wages. how low will HECO go, if they're saying the problem is only underground?
try ask the people how many had to walk up 20 or 30 floors to get home
Here’s the theory. Downtown area is about 2-3 feet above sea level. Which means the underground utilities are buried at or below sea level. With ocean rise and flooding, every time there’s a heavy rain the electric lines are underwater and they’re shorting out. Hawaii electric doesn’t want to admit it’s got a huge problem coming up in the next couple decades. This is just the beginning.
We are stuck with HECO 😩
and the government wants people to buy more electric vehicles. The grid can't handle that kind of demand. More money needs to be spent to upgrade the grid
Nah. More money needs to go to the rail first lol. Screw the grid
I have a house with solar panels and an electric car. I'm gonna be buying electric cars forever now. Haven't paid for gas in 4 years
Josh Green is not so green and now Hawaii is no different to a turd world country!
Shit happens 💩 you'll get answers soon, higher electricity bill soon 💸💸💸💸💸
That’s always the answer lol
electric the bus and dirty water. what else. and crime.
“Crime is down”
@@alaefarmestatesllc the police be down too Haha
If they’re working quickly they have to work quicker.
Running on empty
They have one job and they can’t deliver
Answer is buy generators lol
They did announce, black-outs will happen because they are updating their equipment.
But scheduled blackouts were expected. Not this surprise blackout.
@prst99 they could have caused the fire working on replacing equipment. The fire was underground, so it was not set . The man being interviewed said they are replacing equipment . Apparently, somehow, wires overheated. I think they did not think that a fire would occur . Until cables overheated.
