Power Shutoff Leaves 10,000 West Maui Customers Without Electricity

Approximately 10,000 customers in West Maui are currently without power due to a significant outage caused by extreme wind gusts over 80 mph and rapidly dropping humidity, which increased wildfire risk. Hawaiian Electric Industries Inc. $(HEI)$ proactively shut off power to additional circuits in West Maui as part of its Public Safety Power Shutoff (PSPS) program. Customers are being advised to prepare for extended outages that may last several hours or even days, as power will remain off until hazardous weather conditions subside and crews can safely inspect and repair any damage. PSPS watches are also in effect for South Kohala on Hawaii Island and other parts of Maui, where further shutoffs may occur if weather conditions worsen.
