Honolulu, HI – Holu Hou Energy (HHE), a Hawaii-based solar company dedicated to providing solutions to low- and middle-income housing, is proud to announce a partnership with tenants in the agricultural community of Kunia Village to prove clean energy is for everyone. Through HHE’s partnership with the Green Energy Money $aver (GEM$) Program, more residents than ever can afford to invest in solar energy, reducing Hawaii’s overall carbon footprint. GEM$ is headed by the Hawaii Green Infrastructure Authority (HGIA) in an effort to dramatically reduce the cost of solar adoption and accelerate solar integration.
Earlier this year, HHE became an approved contractor through HGIA as the next step in its mission to bring solar energy solutions to low- and middle-income community residences, as well as multi-dwelling units (MDUs) like apartments, condos, and more. For many residents, participation in HGIA’s GEM$ Program results in 100% financing of a new solar array and energy storage system. The program also partners with Hawaiian Electric to integrate the repayment charge into the property’s existing HECO bill — an addition that can often be canceled out by the reduction in energy cost or energy buy-back programs. In addition to new solar arrays, HHE also provides Kunia Village residents with reliable solar energy storage batteries that store excess power for later use and reduce the impact of power outages.
The combination of solar panels and energy storage results in savings of over 20% when compared to a property’s previous energy bill. HHE proudly partners with the GEM$ Program and the residents of Kunia Village as a Clean Energy Ally, bringing solar energy access to more communities throughout Hawaii.
