AES Hawaii, operator of the largest power plant on Oahu, received 15,000 tons of Indonesian coal from the Liberian flag bulker MV Flying Tiger. The 180-megawatt plant is the biggest source of the island’s electricity and provided 13% of the state’s overall power in 2018.

So they’re using almost 70% OIL based plants and moving away from much cheaper coal. Where in any world but kill all American economies does this make sense?
