Maui to get a second wind power farm

By MB-BigB | July 2, 2006

From the Honolulu Advertiser - “Shell Oil Co. plans to build a $200 million wind-power farm in a remote corner of Maui’s ‘Ulupalakua Ranch that will produce enough electricity for 15,000 homes and greatly reduce Maui’s dependence on imported oil.

Shell’s proposed 40-megawatt Auwahi wind power farm and a 30-megawatt wind farm under construction above Ma’alaea are expected to provide about 20 percent of Maui’s electricity when both projects are running, Shell officials said yesterday.”
