AGP Executive Report

Last update: an hour ago

Energy: Hawaiian Electric says wildfire-prevention shutoffs could leave some households without power for extended periods; the utility is also seeking rate increases. Officials warn that door-to-door offers of “free state solar systems” are not legitimate. Business Services: Hawaiʻi’s business-registration backlog has reached 40,000 amid a system failure. DCCA says Salesforce will address delays at no cost. Agriculture & Innovation: UH is offering free soil and water testing to farmers affected by recent storms, while a Hawaiʻi teen has developed a coconut-based filter to capture ocean pollutants. Local Commerce: A new Lahaina marketplace is helping bring businesses back, and DBEDT is deepening a partnership with a Japanese retailer to expand opportunities for Hawaiʻi companies.
