Hear what environmentalists are saying about clean, renewable wind energy

Oahu's north shore area is arguably one of the most beautiful places in the world, and preserving the island's environment and rural character is a priority for the Kahuku Wind team. In fact, we have a proven track record of environmental stewardship, creating the country's first Habitat Conservation Plan for the Kaheawa Wind project in Maui. We employ four individuals, including two full-time biologists, at Kaheawa, experts who continuously monitor ongoing plant restoration projects and the well-being of endangered bird species.

No pollution: Wind energy produces zero air or water pollution. Fewer emissions: Based on data recently published by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (U.S. EPA) Emissions and Generation Resource Integrated Database (E-GRID), traditional generation sources producing an equivalent annual amount of electric energy would emit greenhouse gases (GHG) consisting of nearly 82,000 tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) and 395 tons of nitrogen oxide (NOx).
