Hawaiian island gets a huge renewable energy boost thanks to
Tesla
Batteries could also help utilities to harness the collective power of
thousands of rooftop solar systems.
Across the Hawaiian islands, utilities are required to get 100 percent
of their electricity from renewable sources by 2045 — the most ambitious
Renewable Portfolio Standard of any U.S.
The
Long: Perhaps most importantly, it includes over 270 of Tesla's
Powerpack batteries, which will store some of the solar power created
during the day and supply those electrons to the grid in the evening.
Batteries could also help utilities to harness the collective power of
thousands of rooftop solar systems.
With "virtual power plants," utilities can digitally aggregate
solar-battery systems in an area to utilize their power all at once,
simulating the flow from a singular power plant.

The Kapaia project will allow the utility to operate at 100 percent
renewables more often, and with greater stability, in the middle of the
day, Tesla said.
