Hawaii regulators to review Hawaiian Electric storm outages
Original: Public Utilities Commission to hold meetings on Hawaiian Electric storm outages; none yet set for Maui County
The Hawaii Public Utilities Commission says it will hold meetings to examine Hawaiian Electric's handling of storm-related power outages. So far, no meetings have been scheduled for Maui County, where residents are watching closely given lingering sensitivity over the utility's role in the 2023 Lahaina fire and ongoing concerns about grid reliability during severe weather.
Why now: Residents and officials want accountability over storm power outages, especially in Maui County, which has been left out of the scheduled meetings so far.
