Selling Power to the Utility
Oahu Non-Wires Alternative EOI
February 28, 2023
Through the NWA EOI, Hawaiian Electric is seeking information to determine whether there are cost competitive NWAs to the traditional wires solution on the island of Oahu, that will provide sufficient load reduction beginning in 2026 to address overloads of existing infrastructure due to the significant load growth in the Kakaako and Kewalo area in the coming years. Developers or aggregators who are capable of developing utility-scale renewable projects or aggregating DER/EE in the Kakaako and Kewalo area of Oahu are encouraged to submit comprehensive responses to this request. General performance requirements are provided in the EOI.
Interested parties are requested to complete the Property Questionnaire (see Appendix A) and submit the information via email or U.S. Mail as stated below by February 28, 2023.
