The Hawaii Clean Energy Initiative (HCEI), launched in 2008, set a groundbreaking goal: achieve 100% renewable electricity by 2045. This commitment has spurred a transformation in the state''s energy landscape, with significant investments in solar, wind, and geothermal power.
Today, our seasoned solar team at Attyx will help you get familiar with the different Hawaii solar incentives and tax credits out there that you can take advantage of when you install solar panels on your property.
Hawaii''s tropical climate and year-round sunshine make it an ideal location for solar energy. But it''s not just about the weather — the financial, environmental, and energy security benefits are driving more homeowners to make the switch in 2025.
The two most common types of solar PV systems used to make electricity are utility- scale solar PV and distributed (rooftop) solar PV. On average, utility-scale solar PV is the cheapest, most

The recent enactment of new federal regulations has raised concerns over the future of solar energy in Hawaii, potentially leading to increased electricity costs and hindering the state''s ambitious clean energy targets. Set
Hawaiian Electric ranks in the nation''s top 10 electric utilities for solar power adoption by the Solar Electric Power Association. Solar water heating, PV, and concentrating solar power technologies have contributed to Hawaii becoming a national leader in solar power.
According to the Energy Information Administration, solar makes up about 65% of Hawaii''s renewable electricity generation. The state uses both rooftop systems and larger installations, making solar the top renewable source here.

The energy sector in Hawaii has rapidly adopted solar power due to the high costs of electricity, and good solar resources, and has one of the highest per capita rates of solar power in the United States. Hawaii''s imported energy costs, mostly for imported petroleum and coal, are three to four times higher than the mainland, so Hawaii has motivation to become one of the highest users of solar energy
To accelerate Hawaiʻi''s transition to renewable energy, Gov. Josh Green set a new goal for rooftop solar in an executive order last week: 50,000 new installations by 2030.
