Donovan Dela Cruz on Energy & Oil

 

 


Fund geothermal exploration and community outreach

The chairs of the Legislature's appropriations committees--Sen. Donovan Dela Cruz and Rep. Kyle Yamashita--introduced companion bills to fund geothermal exploration and community outreach. The money in those bills was intended for the Hawai'i Technology Development Corp., a state agency. Those measures stalled, but the committees headed by Dela Cruz and Yamashita agreed in late April 2024 to insert $6 million for geothermal energy exploration directly into the tech agency's budget.
