Establishes a public-private partnership to develop waste-to-energy facilities in Hawaii counties with populations below 800,000.

The bill mandates the Hawaii state energy office to create public-private partnerships for developing waste-to-energy facilities in counties with populations under 800,000. These facilities aim to reduce the state's solid waste stream by diverting waste from landfills and extracting energy. The initiative aligns with state energy goals, including renewable energy, energy efficiency, energy resiliency, and clean transportation. The partnerships will help achieve these goals by facilitating private sector project completions and leveraging waste-to-energy technology.
