Description

Hawaiian Electric is doubling down for hurricane season, learning from last year’s Maui wildfires—trimming trees near power lines to prevent sparks and outages, replacing 1,650 poles and upgrading 850 more, boosting staff and gear, and prepping emergency plans while watching Tropical Storm Lala. If the grid goes down, they urge residents to unplug electronics to avoid damage when power comes back.
