Much HADA thanks goes to
Congresswoman Hanabusa
Acting on HADA’s request,
Congresswoman
Colleen
Hanabusa wrote a letter to
the director of the Consumer
Financial Protection Bureau
with questions regarding the
Bureau’s March 21 Guidance
on dealer-assisted financing.
As we all know, the Bureau
charged that auto dealers
across the nation had engaged in (even though perhaps inadvertently) what the
Bureau officials termed “disparate impact” discrimination with regard to protected
classes on dealer-assisted financing.
In the Bureau’s response to the Congresswoman the director stated that
the loan finance amounts were not considered in the Bureau’s analysis.
This was new information--that revealed a possible flaw in the CFPB’s analysis of dealer-assisted financing.
The helpful assistance of Congresswoman Hanabusa and her staff helped
achieve a breakthrough in understanding how the Bureau pursued their
study.
As more discussions on this issue continue with the Bureau, NADA has
published a helpful Fair Credit Compliance Guide. HADA has ordered 300
copies which will be available at the HADA office at the auto show. It is
also available online at www.nada.org
Much thanks to all for the work on this issue.

Dealer Day
at the State Capitol
Governor Neil Abercrombie discusses issues
relating to the auto industry with HADA
president-elect Bill van den Hurk at the Dealer
Day at the State Capitol, January 16.
D
ealers and senior managers representing most of Hawaii's new-car dealerships joined more than 50
members of the State House of Representatives and State Senate to enjoy an informal discussion on
issues facing the retail auto industry in Hawaii. Plate lunches from Kaka'ako Kitchen were provided
for the HADA-sponsored "Dealer Day at the Capitol" held 11:30 – 1 p.m., Thursday, January 16, 2014 in
Room 329 at the State Capitol.
Energy will be a subject of legislation likely to be discussed at length during this year's legislative session. The
Car Factor is playing a growing role in Hawaii's energy economy. Electric vehicles provide a market for offpeak electric charging through the power grid, and the possible introduction of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles in
the next few years may provide a commercial market for renewable, Hawaii-produced fuel. The development
of hydrogen fueling infrastructure in Hawaii has been funded for years by a portion of the $1.05/barrel tax
on imported oil. The barrel tax sunsets next year and there will be legislation relating to extending the tax
beyond its designated sunset in 2015 to accommodate the continued development of hydrogen fueling
infrastructure. HADA continues to support the goals of the Hawaii Clean Energy Initiative, with the goal 70%
clean energy by 2030—with 40% coming from renewable energy and 30% from efficiencies.

• HADA has filed opposition testimony on SB2685, a bill to impose a $1 tax on replacement tires.
• HADA filed support testimony on HB2509, which would replenish the abandoned tire fund
• HADA filed support testimony on HB2658, which would use some of the barrel tax to create hydrogen fuel
station infrastructure.
• HADA is monitoring SB2896 which “clarifies that the General Excise Tax (GET) imposed upon the wholesale
sale of tangible personal property is generally one-half of one percent of the gross proceeds of the sale.”
• HADA is monitoring the minimum wage bills (HB2580 and SB2609) which would raise the $7.25 min. wage
by $2.25 and $2.85 respectively over the next three years. The House bill raises the minimum hourly wage
75-cents per year, while the Senate bill raises it by 95 cents per year. Both bills delete the tip credit and
attach future increases to the Consumer Price Index.

Cover Story
Hawaii
At the Center of Innovation
For a time, Hawaii was at the epicenter of the
world fuel that was used for light.
Up to 800 whaling ships plied island waters around Lahaina in the early
part of the 19th century.
The clean-burning whale oil obtained from harvesting the giants of the
deep was used to lubricate the new machines of the burgeoning industrial age. The oil was also perfect for lamps. New Bedford Mass, the East
In the late 1800s, Hawaii’s King Kalakaua visited with the famed inventor. Iolani Palace subsequently was lit with electric lights.
The king used hydro power from a dam on Nuuanu stream to create his
electricity.
The first car in the islands was, in fact, a Woods Electric, brought in October 1898, by Henry P. Baldwin—of Alexander & Baldwin—and interestingly a relation through marriage lines to HADA’s current present, Mike

Coast American city, in fact, was called the “city that lit the world.”
Today, more Hawaii homeowners are duplicating King Kalakaua’s conLahaina, a whaling town, was Hawaii’s first capital.
Later in the 1800s, things rapidly changed. A new drilling technique,
that involved pipe-reinforced well walls in Pennsylvania, was developed
to allow easy extraction of petroleum.
When John D. Rockefeller came along and developed a way to inexpensively refine kerosene – the ancient “darkness that cometh when no man

power back at night -- produced by oil-fired generators or wind-powered
HECO officials now restrict the number and size of PV systems that can
route electricity through their many neighborhood “distribution transformers.” These transformers are seen either on poles or on concrete
pads in neighborhoods around Hawaii. High voltage electricity is transformed to 120v/240v for use in homes and transformers allow load variances of input and demand to be accommodated.
Initially HECO used a 15% load factor limit from PV-equipped homes
using on a single neighborhood distribution transformer. Soon, however,
homeowners who sought installation after their neighbors and applied
for the permits, were asked to pay for costly “studies” to determine if
the neighborhood distribution transformer could handle the additional
variable PV load.
Some of these homeowners complained about the delays and additional
costs -- saying that the 15% limit on the transformer was “arbitrary”
and not backed by sufficient data to illustrate a distribution problem.
Enter the electric car….and a $30 million Japan-funded study conducted by Hitachi officials on Maui—to see how Smart Grid distribution of
electricity in PV homes could eventually allow fewer traditional oil-fired
generators to be on line. There is even discussions on how EV batteries
can serve as backfill—which would provide storage of electricity to be
used to backfill when unfirm wind is online at night and load levels need
to be supported by electricity that is stored in batteries.
Hawaii finds itself again at the epicenter of world attention on clean
fuel.
This time, though, the focus is renewable fuel—reflected in the adoption
goals of the 2008 Hawaii Clean Energy Initiative.
As pointed out in this edition’s story on Dealer Day at the Capitol, much
legislation in the 2014 legislative session is focused on hydrogen fuel
station adoption, the barrel tax, and laws facilitating use of electric vehicles.
Hawaii’s adoption rate for EVs, up until the higher goals set for this year,
had remained roughly on track.
It is clear, now though, that the efficient use of the distribution transformers in neighborhoods, and perhaps, more importantly, the general
education issues surrounding the benefits for Hawaii customers who
make use of Hawaii-produced renewable-energy in their vehicles, are
issues that need to be soon resolved.
Hawaii’s new car dealers are ardently pursuing ways to help the process.
