Description/Comments

'Energy and Greenhouse Gas Solutions for Hawai'i's Economy' with Dr. Denise Eby Konan
The energy infrastructure of Hawai'i is more dependent on petroleum than any other state's. Denise Konan shares an analysis of the carbon intensity of Hawai'i's commercial and residential activities. Her study indicates 'greening' the visitor sector, utilities, transportation, and residential buildings does more than help our environment, it can cut power costs in the long run and strengthen the economy.
Denise Konan is a professor of economics and former chancellor of UHM. Konan heads the Energy and Greenhouse Gas Solutions of the UH Economic Research Organization, which monitors and models Hawai'i's energy, greenhouse gas emissions and economic activities. She has been an advisor to the World Bank and Council on Foreign Relations.

The Sakamaki Extraordinary Lectures are an annual summer series extending the intellectual resources of the University of Hawai'i at Mānoa to the community. The 2009 lectures support Outreach College's Sustain Your Brain initiative and provide a multi-dimensional examination of Hawai'i's progress in the development of clean and renewable energy.

Funded in part by the Shunzo Sakamaki Extraordinary Lecture Endowment at the University of Hawai'i Foundation and the Hawai'i Energy Policy Forum's Koaniani Fund at the Hawai'i Community Foundation.
