Wow, weird to see an LNG shipment volume described in gallons. '7100 LNG gallons'. Also weird to think that a few years ago I did some work on an LNG importing terminal at the Port of Los Angeles - where this shipment was sent from. You would think that Hawaii could use a full scale LNG import terminal. Probably most of their electric generation use oil or coal now?

Once BWC's MPower SMR's are commercial, I would like to see an Oahu power authority of some kind where: 1. military operated the reactors to supply power to base and island. 2. the power authority sold wholesale power to Hawaiin Electric 3. an electric utility board with members from military, Hawaiin electric and consumers (both commercial and residential). That would really keep a lid on electricity prices for both the public and the military.....the advantage of the MPower SMRs is that the reactor core is sealed and simply swapped out when fuel is burned.
