HI SB3254

Appropriates unspecified general fund amounts for fiscal year 2026-2027 as grants to the Hawaii Primary Care Association for solar-plus-storage microgrid deployment at nonprofit community health centers

Eight specific community health center sites across multiple islands would receive microgrid installations, including facilities on Hawaii Island, Maui (Hana), Molokai, and Oahu (Waimanalo and Wahiawa)

Funding aims to close financing gaps for projects that leverage private, philanthropic, and federal tax credit incentives to reduce long-term operating costs and ensure continuity of care during power outages

A separate appropriation would support the Hawaii Primary Care Association's programmatic services, project management, reporting, fiscal oversight, and development of scalable plans for future microgrid expansion

Effective date of January 30, 2050 indicates this is a placeholder bill pending further legislative action on specific funding amounts
