Recently due to the people voting against it this week, the government announced a freeze on the construction of a large Hawaiian Solar Farm project.
After the current Hawaii Public Utilities Commission announced the suspension of the solar project, local residents complained about the illegal project to local zoning laws, and not in the public interest.
The solar farm project has been under construction for at least eight years.
Due to the unique geographical and climatic conditions, the proportion of solar power generation in Hawaii than in other states. However, Hawaii is not as good as other states in favor of solar energy.
50 United States, only Hawaii, California, Arizona, and Florida generate a capacity of 1 percent from solar power. These states have developed solar climates.
The US Energy Information Administration data show that last year solar power generation accounted for 0.6 percent of all US energy generating capacity, wind energy accounted for 4.7%, coal and natural gas 33%, and nuclear power accounted for 20 percent of all US electricity.
In the United States, most solar companies can get a lot of government subsidies, including federal tax credits.
So without government support, solar energy companies simply can not survive.
