AES' Kuihelani Facility: Biggest Solar Plant In Hawaii Flips the Switch on Clean Energy
Yesterday, The AES Corporation's (NYSE:AES) AES Hawaii initiated operations at the Kuihelani Solar-plus-Storage facility on Maui, the largest solar project in Hawaii.
昨天，AES夏威夷電力實業公司（NYSE：AES）在毛伊島上的Kuihelani太陽能+儲能設施啓動運營，該項目是夏威夷最大的太陽能項目。
Situated on 450 acres in central Maui, between Kuihelani Highway and Maui Veterans Highway, the Kuihelani Solar-plus-Storage project generates 60 MW of renewable energy.
該Kuihelani太陽能+儲能項目位於毛伊島中部的450英畝土地上，在Kuihelani公路和Maui Veterans公路之間，可發電60兆瓦的可再生能源。
Leveraging the site's dual-use potential, AES Hawaii is collaborating with Hooulu Aina Farms in nearby Waikapu, supporting Maui's agricultural and food production.
AES夏威夷與附近Waikapu的Hooulu Aina農場合作，利用該場地的雙重用途潛力，支持毛伊島的農業和食品生產。
Notably, AES Hawaii had earlier secured a 25-year power purchase agreement with Hawaiian Electric Industries, Inc. (NYSE:HE), effective May 31, 2024, supplying renewable energy to Maui's power grid at 8 cents per kilowatt-hour.
值得注意的是，AES夏威夷早已與夏威夷電力實業公司（紐約證交所：HE）簽訂了一份爲期25年的電力購買協議，自2024年5月31日起，以每千瓦時8美分的價格向毛伊島的電網提供可再生能源。
Furthermore, the project helps eliminate the requirement to import two million barrels of oil for Maui's electricity production.
此外，該項目有助於消除毛伊島電力生產進口200萬桶石油的要求。
AES Hawaii President Sandra Larsen said, "Kuihelani Solar-plus-Storage exemplifies what is possible for powering our future when you combine an exceptional renewable energy project with community-minded partners to provide an essential service for living and working in Hawaii."
AES夏威夷總裁桑德拉·拉森（Sandra Larsen）表示：“Kuihelani太陽能+儲能項目展示了什麼是可能的，當你將優秀的可再生能源項目與以社區爲重心的合作伙伴相結合，爲居住和在夏威夷工作提供必要的服務。”
"We broke ground in July 2022, overcame challenges posed by supply chain logistics, and are now producing much-needed clean energy for Maui's power grid."
“我們於2022年7月開始動工，克服了供應鏈物流帶來的挑戰，現在爲毛伊島的電網生產了迫切需要的清潔能源。”
Colton Ching, Hawaiian Electric Senior Vice President, Planning & Technology, commented, "With this project, our state takes another significant step towards achieving our renewable energy goals. Adding both renewable power and energy storage will help reduce our use of fossil fuels, protect us from the effects of climate change, ensure reliable service and provide energy security for Maui."
夏威夷電力規劃與技術高級副總裁Colton Ching評論道：“通過該項目，我們的州在實現可再生能源目標方面又邁出了重要的一步。增加可再生能源和儲能將有助於減少化石燃料的使用，保護我們免受氣候變化的影響，確保可靠的服務併爲毛伊島提供能源安全。”
Last month, AES disclosed the sale of a 47.3% equity stake in AES Brasil to Auren Energia for around $640 million in proceeds.
上個月，AES披露將AES巴西的47.3％股權出售給Auren Energia，獲得大約6.4億美元的收益。
