HONOLULU, Oct. 23, 2025 - Hawaiian Electric continues to monitor weather conditions across leeward areas and some central areas of the islands in its service territories, as well as northern portions of Hawaii Island. A National Weather Service Red Flag Warning remains in effect through 6 p.m. Saturday. If necessary, Hawaiian Electric may implement its Public Safety Power Shutoff program within the next 24 hours and proactively shut off power in communities with high exposure to wildfire risk. Customers in these areas are urged to initiate their own emergency plans and prepare for the possibility of extended power outages.

Current outages are not related to the company's PSPS program.
