Energy Efficiency Portfolio Standard (EEPS) • Goal: Reducing electricity use by 4,300 gigawatt-hour (GWh) by 2030. – 4,300 GWh= 4,300,000,000 KWh – An average house uses 10,656 KWh/year (Department of Energy) – 4,300 GWh/ 10,656 KWh = approximately 403,529 households “turned off”. – In 2010, the state of Hawaii had 455,338 households.

Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS) • 15% renewable energy by 2015 • 25% renewable energy by 2020 • 40% renewable energy by 2030
