Tune in to our latest “Talk Story” episode as Ulupono Initiative’s Michael Colón sits down with Mark Glick, Hawaiʻi’s chief energy officer, to discuss the state’s commitment to achieving 100% renewable energy by 2045. Since returning to his role in January 2023, Glick has focused on reducing energy costs and carbon emissions while enhancing infrastructure resilience, especially in the wake of the Maui wildfires. He addresses the governor’s decision to reevaluate liquefied natural gas as a lower-cost, low-carbon alternative to residual fuel oil. Glick also highlights ongoing efforts to expand geothermal energy through community engagement and research, aiming to make the state more energy self-sufficient.
