Alternative Energy on Maui Maui is the perfect location for "Off the Grid" living. We have great exposure to the sun, making solar energy a great choice, many communities have a good supply of wind allowing for energy from wind turbines, there are even some residents trying hydro power on Maui. Some rural areas don't have access to utilities, this is where you see residents taking advantage of the elements to provide the energy they need. "Off the Grid" means you don't depend on the utility companies for survival. Oftentimes water catchment is part of this off the grid living, many areas on Maui have enough rainfall to supply more water than what is needed using the appropriate catchment system. I invite you to explore the options of living off the grid in Maui. Please let me know of any questions you may have about this subject while looking for a property on Maui.
