HI HB193

Extends Hawaii's energy-efficiency portfolio standards goal from 4,300 gigawatt hours by 2030 to 6,000 gigawatt hours by 2045.

Redefines the standard to measure "cumulative persisting electricity savings" from measures installed since January 1, 2009, that remain operational and providing savings.

Authorizes the Public Utilities Commission to establish interim energy-efficiency goals for 2030, 2035, and 2040, in addition to existing 2015, 2020, and 2025 targets.

Requires the Public Utilities Commission to evaluate energy-efficiency portfolio standards every five years and report findings and revisions to the legislature.

Takes effect July 1, 2050.
