Abstract

The State of Hawaii anticipates that by the year 2007 up to 500 deliverable megawatts (MW or MWe) of geothermally-generated electricity would be needed for transmission from the island of Hawaii to the islands of Maui (up to 50 megawatts) and Oahu via an interisland cable system. For this environmental review, the areas considered as potential sources of this power are the three geothermal resources subzones (GRS) within the Kilauea East Rift Zone on the Big Island of Hawaii. Specifically, they are: (1) the Kilauea Middle East Rift GRS; (2) the Kamaili section of the Kilauea Lower East Rift GRS; and, (3) the Kapoho Section of the Kilauea Lower East Rift GRS.
