Given the small area of the islands and the less-than-flat terrain, I'm surprised they went solar. Have hydro turbines been considered?

Hawaii is not known for its rivers.
You don't need flat terrain for solar. China is papering over entire mountains with panels. https://www.reddit.com/r/interestingasfuck/comments/sd88u7/s...
Impressive and frightening. Trying to patch an ecological horror with an ecological horror.
You need less area than you might think for Solar. Especially somewhere that is sunny like Hawaii.
