Hawaii

Quick Facts
  • Hawaii requires that 100% of its electricity be generated by renewable sources of energy by 2045. In 2023, about 31% of the state’s total generation came from renewables.
  • Despite having the third-lowest total energy consumption among the states, Hawaii uses almost nine times more energy than it produces.
  • In 2023, solar power provided about 19% of Hawaii’s total electricity, the majority of which was from small-scale, customer-sited solar power generation. Hawaii had the 11th-most small-scale solar generation among the states in 2023.
  • Petroleum accounts for about four-fifths of Hawaii’s total energy consumption, the highest share for any state.
  • Hawaii has the highest average electricity price of any state and it is nearly triple the U.S. average. The state’s electricity use is the fourth-lowest in the nation.

Washington has no natural gas reserves or production.93 However, the state has one underground natural gas storage field, the Jackson Prairie Gas Storage Facility located in western Washington. It has a total storage capacity of about 47 billion cubic feet.94,95,96 Canada supplies most of the natural gas that Washington uses. Almost two-thirds of the natural gas that enters the state comes from Idaho and most of that is originally from Canada
