Hale Hana, the Siddhidata Kulam’s new maintenance and person workstation building, draws a lot of power from the electrical grid, which is expensive on Kauai due to remoteness. Therefore we decided to invest in solar panels and batteries. The process is complete; the building is now entirely running on solar energy and will soon be connected to the island grid so that excess energy can be sold to the utility company. This solar generation will also help power the noni building and greenhouses.
