PUC hosts public meetings on power reliability after storms
Hawaii's utility regulators are collecting public feedback on how the electric grid held up during recent storms, a chance for residents hit by outages to be heard.
- The Public Utilities Commission is holding public information meetings this month on storm-related power reliability.
- Residents who lost power are being asked to describe what happened.
- Each meeting includes statements from HECO and the consumer advocate.
- Written comments can be submitted online ahead of the meetings.
- The first session is tomorrow evening at Kailua High School's cafeteria.
Outlook: The feedback gathered this month will shape how regulators press HECO on grid reliability heading into the next storm season.
