Hawaii Energy Announcement today

Aloha,

Recent articles in the Star Advertiser and local TV News have been incorrect or have required significant corrections, please closely read the following to know the facts.

REVIEW AND CONTRACT REVISION OPTIONS UNDERWAY

With over 200 "wait listed" work order requests received last Friday, Hawaii Energy is actively reviewing the budget to provide you with a disposition of the pending work orders and outlook for the remainder of Program Year 2010.

Hawaii Energy is engaged with the Hawaii Solar Energy Association (HSEA), the PUC and DBEDT to explore funding options to address the “wait list” and the remainder of the Program Year ending June 30^th.

UPDATE BY FRIDAY

Hawaii Energy will be issuing an update no later than Friday, April 22^nd in order to relay any new information that becomes available.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW RIGHT NOW

· The $1,500 SWH Rebate Program is fully subscribed and the “wait list” is closed.

· The solar interest buy-down program a.k.a. “Hot Water, Cool Rates”, which includes the $1,000 interest buydown PLUS the $750 bonus rebate remains available.

· Participating Contractors are advised to postpone the installation of any project for which a work order has not been issued until a clear Program Policy is issued by Hawaii Energy.

FOR PROJECTS WITH A WORK ORDER

In light of the current situation, Hawaii Energy will be contacting Participating Contractors with work orders as they approach 30 days old to determine the status of these projects. The intent is to increase the certainty of committed Program funds for projects to be installed before June 30, 2011. For customers not proceding with an installation for any reason, it is imperative that Participating Contractors call in a work order cancellation in order to free up funds.

Finally, all installations seeking a work order must be completed on or before June 30, 2011. Any customer or Participating Contractor unable to facilitate an installation by June 30, 2011 may take advantage of Hawaii Energy’s new programs launching July 1, 2011.

We appreciate your patience at this time.

Mahalo,

Hawaii Energy

Testimonial

“Because of the amount we save each month on our bill from having solar hot water I’m able to stay home from work. It’s the best investment we’ve ever made. It pays for itself very quickly and has reduced our electricity bill by half.”

Ann, Ewa Beach

“Our 16 panels and micro inverters have dropped our electricity bill by $250 a month. We have a 7500 square foot house and our goal is to get our bill down to zero. We will definitely use Pacific Energy again to expand our system. The tax credit process was simple and we can track how much electricity we produce. This investment has been worth it. Energy costs are only going to keep going up and it will take us around five years to recoup what we paid for our system. You can’t get that kind of return anywhere else.”

Mark, Waialua

“Our system has produced 6000kWh since May 2008. That’s around18kWh a day with 16 panels. I am very impressed with Pacific Energy and appreciate their service. Every time something needed to be done, they were here. The installation was also very fast. We now only pay the HECO service charge and generate all of our own electricity.”

John, Waianae

“Pacific Energy is a great company to work with. The quality is excellent and the installers were very professional. We have 20 panels with micro inverters. Our bill was previously $160-180 and now we only pay the $18 service charge and have 113kWh of credit.”

Glenn, Royal Kunia

Thanks for the ‘aftermarket service check’. The key information that we are both interested in is the system is working every bit as well as you said it would. I received my first (after solar panels) electric bill and it was the $18+ administration fee. The nice thing is the bill also reflected how many Kw of credits were generated last month. Not a huge amount, about 3 day’s work of credits based upon past historical use.

I’m really pleased with the system, the care with which your folks worked and the professional manner throughout the entire process.

I brag about the system and your company every chance I get and encourage neighbors and friends to contact you and either add to their systems or do a complete install.

I’m hoping after paying income tax I’ll be even more enthusiastic about the whole thing.

Place me in the very satisfied customer stack and being able to monitor the system, even when in Thailand or the Philippines gives a real sense of security. Great job!

Kap khun mahl krab, as is said in Thai. Thank you very much.

Chris, Ewa Beach
