Electricity in Hawaii costs three times as much as the national average. That’s because most of it is generated by power plants fueled by expensive imported oil.

David Ige (D) vetoes it by May 15. Chances are, Hawaii is on its way to becoming one of the greenest island in the world—fortunately, recent developments in rooftop solar have been pointing the way.
