Organization
Hawaiian Electric Industries earns an overall Lower Risk rating because most of its practices, including cancellations, philanthropy, funding, and political actions, show little sign of politically motivated bias. However, its high scores in employment protection and advocacy bias indicate some inconsistency in fully avoiding identity-based policies and activist messaging.
Hawaiian Electric Industries, Inc. (HEI) is the largest supplier of electricity in the U.S. state of Hawaii, supplying power to 95% of Hawaii's population through its electric utilities: Hawaiian Electric Company serving Oahu, Hawai'i Electric Light Company serving The Big Island, and Maui Electric Company serving Maui, Lanai and Molakai. In addition, HEI owns a financial institution serving Hawaii, American Savings Bank, and a clean energy and sustainability company, Pacific Current LLC.
