OVERVIEW |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Built in
1986, the Kamaoa wind farm at South
Point on the southern tip of the island
of Hawaii stopped producing energy for
the Big Island’s grid in the last ten
years. The 37 battered and beaten
Mitsubishi 250 kw turbines essentially
went dormant and were recently replaced
by fourteen new 1.5 mw at the Pakini Nui
wind farm.

DIRECTIONS |
|
| |
|
|
| |
The Kamoa Wind Farm is
located in South Point. To get to South
Point, take the narrow but paved road off
Hwy. 11, about six miles west of Na'alehu
town, and head directly south for 12 miles
to the ocean. |
