[RE-wrenches] Hawaii Frequency Settings

[Nick Soleil]

Yes Mark,

Enphase sets the alternate grid parameters for HI remotely, and will send a
letter of confirmation directly to the utility on your behalf.  We have
preset grid parameters for HECO and MECO.

“Don’t get me wrong: I love nuclear energy! It’s just that I prefer fusion
to fission. And it just so happens that there’s an enormous fusion reactor
safely banked a few million miles from us. It delivers more than we could
ever use in just about 8 minutes. And it’s wireless! .”

- William McDonough
