Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say
Speaker, House of Representatives

Regular Session of 2010
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Consumer Protection & Commerce, to which was referred S.B. No. 2357, S.D. 2, H.D. 1, entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO RENEWABLE ENERGY,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this bill is to facilitate the reduction of the state's dependency on imported petroleum by establishing an annual reporting requirement for a gas utility to measure and evaluate its progress in integrating renewable resources as a part of its production of synthetic natural gas.
The Public Utilities Commission, Blue Planet Foundation, Sierra Club–Hawaii Chapter, and The Gas Company supported this bill.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Consumer Protection & Commerce that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 2357, S.D. 2, H.D. 1, and recommends that it pass Third Reading.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Consumer Protection & Commerce,
