The Geothermal Difference
Geothermal energy offers Hawai‘i a reliable, low-emission power source that supports local jobs and keeps money in the islands.
Modern geothermal systems, like the double-flash steam cycle, improve efficiency and reduce emissions. These systems produce far less CO₂ than gas plants and are cleaner than RNG or LNG alternatives, making geothermal a low-impact, sustainable energy choice.
Unlike weather-dependent sources, geothermal provides steady power 24/7. As a reliable, cost-effective baseload energy, it can replace fossil fuels and stabilize the grid, supporting Hawai'i's shift to cleaner, more resilient electricity generation.
Geothermal power strengthens Hawai'i's economy by reducing fuel imports, keeping more money in local communities. It supports small businesses, creates jobs, and offers affordable energy—making life better for families across the islands.

P4P Hawaii is a community-driven initiative focused on advancing sustainable geothermal energy solutions that are led by Native Hawaiians and rooted in cultural and environmental respect.
Geothermal energy is a renewable source of power that comes from heat stored beneath the Earth’s surface. In Hawai‘i, it offers a clean, reliable alternative to fossil fuels and supports energy independence for our islands.
We prioritize community consent, Native Hawaiian leadership, and cultural stewardship. Our approach ensures that energy development benefits local people without compromising our values or natural resources.
P4P Hawaii supports geothermal exploration and community dialogue across the Hawaiian Islands. Specific project locations are guided by cultural assessments and community input.
We work with environmental scientists, cultural practitioners, and local communities to ensure each project upholds the principles of mālama ʻāina—protecting and honoring the land.
Absolutely. We offer opportunities for public engagement through community meetings, educational events, surveys, and volunteer programs.
Yes. When properly managed, geothermal energy is one of the safest and cleanest forms of renewable energy. We prioritize safety, transparency, and environmental monitoring in all phases of development.
We center Native Hawaiian voices in decision-making and integrate ʻike kupuna (ancestral knowledge) and cultural protocol into every stage of planning and implementation.
We are supported through a combination of grants, partnerships, and community contributions. Transparency in funding and spending is a key part of our organizational values.
