Well, you should have said it, because that would suggest you know something about the electrical power systems. How do you think power gets from where it is produced to where it is consumed? You think the Wyoming where this transmission project begins, with population much less that of Honolulu, will consume the 25GW locally, “Behind the meter” as the industry would say? If so what difference does the transmission project make?
You have to produce power before you can transmit it (although you can certainly build both together). You - deliberately or not - misconstrued what was said in the article.
Wyoming has a population of just over 580 000. Honolulu has a population of about 350 000.
