No ia mau loli ʻana, ke hōʻaʻano nei hoʻi kekahi mea kau kānāwai mokuʻāina no lākou iho, ʻo ia hoʻi ka mea e hikiwawe ai kēia huli kua ʻana i ke kaʻa wahie a huli alo i ke kaʻa uila.

Aia kekahi pila e holo ana ma ka Hale, ʻo , nāna e ʻimi nei i ala e kau ʻia ai he lā palane pau e pau loa ai ke kūʻai ʻia o nā kaʻa wahie ma ka mokuʻāina nei. Ma ‘ō aku o ia lā, ʻo nā kaʻa wale nō e kūʻai ʻia auaneʻi ma Ჹɲʻ nei, he kaʻa hapa uila, e like me ka Toyota Prius, a i ʻole he kaʻa uila a kaʻa ʻē aʻe hoʻi e hoʻopua ʻole i ka mea ʻino.

Komo pū mai he “pahuhopu”, ʻo nā kaʻa “lawelawe hana māmā”, ʻo ia hoʻi nā kaʻa, ma ke ʻano laulā, ma lalo o nā paona he 8,500 ko lākou kaumaha, he pono ke hoʻoikehu ʻia lākou e ka ikehu hoʻomau hou ʻia ke hiki mai ka makahiki 2045.

I loko o ka makahiki i hala aʻe nei, ua pili ka ʻoihana kālepa kaʻa a me Wall Street “i nā pili i like mai kekahi me kekahi no nā ʻano e loli loa ana ka halihali ʻana ma kēia mua aku ke hoʻohālike ʻia me ko kēia lā,” wahi a Ohno i pane ai i ka Poʻakolu nei.

Ua hōʻike mai kekahi o nā hoa hana o Ohno ma loko o ka Hale i ko lākou manaʻo, he mea hoʻi ka pila e lima ikaika ʻia ai ka poʻe kūʻai i ka hoʻolilo kālā he mau kaukani keu no ke kaʻa uila.

Ke hāiki maila nō naʻe ka ʻokoʻa ma waena o kekahi kumu kūʻai mai a me kekahi kumu kūʻai aku, a ke manaʻo ʻia nei hoʻi e nalo ana nō ia ʻokoʻa ma loko o nā ʻoihana kālepa kaʻa he nui i loko o nā makahiki he ʻumi e hiki nei, . Ma Ჹɲʻ nei, pono naʻe ke akahele nā mea kau kānāwai ʻaʻole e hoʻopau i ke kūʻai ʻia aku o ke kaʻa wahie ma mua o ka loli ʻana mai o ia kumu kūʻai, wahi a Ohno.

ʻĀnō, he mau kaukani kālā ko ke kumu kūʻai kaʻa uila ma mua o ko ke kaʻa wahie, wahi a nā mea kūʻai kaʻa ma Oʻahu.

Eia naʻe, ʻo ke pani ʻia ʻana o nā kaʻa wahie he miliona a ʻoi ka nui ma kēia mokuʻāina e nā kaʻa uila a kaʻa hoʻopua ʻole hoʻi, ʻo ia ka mea koʻikoʻi e hiki ai iā Ჹɲʻ , i māhele hoʻi ia o kona , wahi a nā luna i ʻōlelo ai.

ʻ ko Ჹɲʻ māhele ʻo ka halihali ʻana pili lepo, ʻo ia hoʻi nā kaʻa kau ʻōhua, nāna e hoʻopua i nā tona mekalika he 4 miliona o nā ea hoʻomehana honua e pulelo ana i kēlā me kēia makahiki ma ka paemoku nei, wahi a ko ka Mokuʻāina ʻo Ჹɲʻ Keʻena Ikehu.

ʻ Ka Nui A Me Ka Makemake ʻIa Ma Kēia Hope Iho

I ka hopena o Ianuali, ua kuahaua mai nei ko Maleka pāʻoihana kālepa kaʻa nui loa, ʻo General Motors, i kona manaʻo e hoʻopau loa ʻia ka hoʻopua ʻia o nā ea mai loko aʻe o nā huelo kaʻa o kona mau kaʻa lawelawe hana māmā a pau ma ke hiki mai ka makahiki 2035.

A hala akula hoʻokahi paha pule, ua pane hou mai ia pāʻoihana me ka hoʻolako pū mai he hoʻolaha kūʻai Supa Pola e hōʻike ana iā Will Ferrell, ka hoʻomākeʻaka kanaka, i ka hoʻolaha ʻana i ka manaʻo e hoʻomāhuahua nui loa i ka haku a hoʻolako ʻana i mau kaʻa uila hou loa, he 30 ka nui, ke kaʻahope aʻe nā makahiki he ʻehā aʻe nei.

ʻ nā pāʻoihana kālepa kaʻa ʻē aʻe, e laʻa me Jaguar me Nissan,

ʻiai hoʻi ma Kaleponi, ua kau mai nei ʻo Kiaʻāina Gavin Newsom nāna e koikoi ikaika mai ana e hoʻopua ʻole loa nā kaʻa a kalaka hou a pau loa e kūʻai ʻia ma laila ma mua o ka makahiki 2035.

“ʻ kēia ke keʻehina e lawe ai ko kākou mokuʻāina i mea e hoʻohuli hope ʻia ai ka loli aniau ma ke ʻano makepono loa,” i pane ai ʻo Newsom ma kekahi palapala hoʻolaha. He hiki nō naʻe ke kahuli ʻia ia kauoha e kekahi kiaʻāina e noho auaneʻi ma hope aku ona.

I Ჹɲʻ nei, he paʻakikī aʻe ke kahuli ʻia ʻana o HB 393, wahi a nā luna i mea mai ai.

Ua kū aku ʻo Dave Rolf, ʻo ia ka luna hoʻokō o ka Ჹɲʻ Automotive Dealers Association, i kekahi ʻaha hoʻolohe kaiāulu i mālama ʻia iho nei, ʻo ka pāpā ʻana ʻaʻole e kūʻai ʻia ke kaʻa wahie, he mea ia e holo ai ka poʻe i ʻAmelika ʻāina nui e kūʻai ai i kaʻa me ka hoʻouna ʻana ma ʻaneʻi, pēlā nō e nui ai ka lilo ma ka ʻaoʻao ʻoihana kālepa a e emi ai hoʻi ka loaʻa ʻauhau.

Wahi a Rolf, kākoʻo ʻia nō e ia ʻahahui ka lawelawe piha ʻia o ka hoʻohana ʻana i ke kaʻa ikehu hoʻomau hou ʻia –– ʻo ka nīnau nui, ʻo ia ka “wā a me ke ʻano e hana ʻia ai pēlā.”

ʻ ke kūlia ʻana hoʻi he hoʻopua ʻole nā kaʻa kau ʻōhua a pau loa ke hiki mai ka makahiki 2045, he mea hōʻoiʻoi hoʻi no ka mea he kumu ia e koikoi ʻia ai nā pāʻoihana kūʻai kaʻa kūloko e hoʻomāhuahua ʻia aʻe ko lākou moʻolako kaʻa uila ma ke ʻano hikiwawe kūpono ʻole, i ʻōlelo ai ʻo Rolf i nā mea kau kānāwai. ʻAʻole hoʻi ʻo ia i wehewehe mai i kona manaʻo no kekahi ʻano wā i ʻoi aʻe paha o ke kūpono.

Ma ke ʻano kaʻawale aʻe, ua helu koho aʻela ʻo Hawaiian Electric, ma kahi o nā kaʻa uila he 450,000 ke holoholo ana ma nā alanui o Ჹɲʻ ke hiki mai ka makahiki 2045, ʻo ia hoʻi ka hapalua o ko ka mokuʻāina mau kaʻa kau ʻōhua.

Ma lalo o HB 393, ʻae mau ʻia nō ke kūʻai ʻia aku o nā kaʻa wahie i hoʻohana mua ʻia, ʻo ka manaʻo nui, e pau ana nō ko lākou waiwai hoʻohana ma kahi o ka makahiki 2045, i ʻōlelo hou ai ʻo Ohno.

I kēia manawa, ma kahi o 14,000 nā kaʻa uila i kau inoa ʻia ma Ჹɲʻ nei, ʻo ka pālua nō hoʻi ia ma mua o ka nui i helu ʻia he ʻekolu wale nō makahiki aku nei, wahi a nā ʻike pili o ka mokuʻāina. He māhele naʻe kēlā o ka heluna nui o nā kaʻa kau ʻōhua i kau inoa ʻia, he 1.1 miliona.

Kūpono Nō Ke Loaʻa Nā Wahi Hoʻoikehu Kaʻa Uila Hou Aku

ʻ kekahi ālaina nui e huli alo nei ʻo Ჹɲʻ, ʻo ka lawa o ka ʻōnaepuni e kū ai nā wahi hoʻoikehu kaʻa uila. ʻ ka nui o nā wahi hoʻoikehu o ka mokuʻāina i noa i ka lehulehu i kēia manawa, he 728, mai . He piʻi nō hoʻi kēlā ma luna o ka nui he 542 .

Ua helu koho ʻia e ka pāʻoihana, he 2,200 ka nui o nā wahi hoʻoikehu i mea e hoʻolawa ʻia ai ka nui o ka māhuahua ʻana o nā kaʻa uila ma ka mokuʻāina nei ke hiki aku i ka makahiki 2045.

Nona iho, ua kūkulu ihola ʻo Hawaiian Electric he a puni ka paeʻāina, pēlā e loaʻa ai ka ikehu i nā kaʻa he 45-mile ka lōʻihi ke hoʻoikehu ʻia he 15 minuke, wahi a Aki Marceau, ko Hawaiian Electric luna no ka ʻaoʻao hoʻoikehu uila i ka halihali ʻana.

He pahuhopu hoʻi ko ka pāʻoihana, ʻo ke kūkulu ʻana i ia ʻano wahi hoʻoikehu e like me ka pāhiku o ka nui ma mua o ko kēia manawa i ka hiki ʻana o nā makahiki o mua aʻe, a ʻo ka māhele kāʻokoʻa hoʻi, he pono nō ke hoʻolako mai lākou pēlā, ma ke ʻano nui ʻino hou aku naʻe, e pane hou ai ʻo Marceau.

Ke hahai nei ʻo Hawaiian Electric i nā pila he nui ma loko o ka ʻAhaʻōlelo, ma ia mau pila paha e hikiwawe ai ke kūkulu ʻia ʻana o ia mau wahi. “Nui hoʻi nā mea e ʻoniʻoni aʻe nei,” i ʻōlelo ai ʻo ia.

“He wā hoʻopīhoihoi maoli kēia,” i pane ai ʻo Scott Glenn, nāna e hoʻoponopono i ko ka . “Nui ke kaulona ʻana o mākou ma luna o kēia mau nīnau i kūpono ke hoʻoponopono ʻia, ʻoiai kākou e lawelawe nei i kēia ʻano hou.”

ʻiai hoʻi, ua piʻi aʻela nō ke kumu kūʻai o ke kaʻa he Nissan Leaf, ma muli hoʻi, ma ke ʻano nui, o ka maikaʻi loa aʻe o ka ihoiho o ia ʻano kaʻa, wahi a nā luna. Ma Tony Nissan, ke kumu kūʻai o ia ʻano kaʻa makahiki 2020 he $29,000, kū like ʻole me ka $17,900 no kekahi kaʻa hatchback i ʻōlelo ʻia e nā mea kūʻai kaʻa ʻo ia ke ʻano kaʻa kūlike loa me ia, ʻo “”.

ʻ i ka mea nāna e kūʻai ka Leaf, he mea hoʻi e kūlike loa aʻe ai nā kumu kūʻai. I ke kaʻahope lōʻihi ʻana o ka wā, na ka poʻe i hiki ke kūʻai aku i ka Leaf e mālama auaneʻi i ke kālā ma ka ʻaoʻao o ke kālepa kaʻa a me ka hoʻoikehu ʻana, wahi a Kristen Turner, he hope luna no ka ikehu ma ko ka Mokuʻāina ʻo Ჹɲʻ Keʻena Ikehu (HSEO).

Ua like paha me ka mālama kālā ʻana ma muli o ke kūkulu ʻana i nā ʻūomo ikehu lā, i loko naʻe o ko lākou kumu kūʻai pipiʻi loa ma kinohi, ma ke kūkulu mua ʻana.

Ke kali ʻia nei ʻo ka hoʻolohe ʻia o HB 393 no ka manawa hope loa i loko o ka Hale, ma ke Kōmike Hoʻokele Waiwai. Inā holo nō ia, e kaʻa ana nō ma loko o ka ʻAha Senate.

“Ke hauʻoli nei au ua loaʻa maila nō kēia pila,” wahi a Ohno. “Inā hiki nō ke lawelawe ʻia kēia pila… ke manaʻo nei au he mea ana ia e pōmaikaʻi ai ʻo Ჹɲʻ. Akā, ke hoʻohiki nei au, ke hala aʻe hoʻokahi mahina hou aʻe, ʻaʻole nō e kūlike ana ia pila.”

Ua kākoʻo ʻia kēia papahana e ka ʻhana o Harry Nathaniel, Levani Lipton, ka ʻhana Mar, a me Lisa Kleissner.
