“In any other place, bringing in utility equipment just means driving it from a neighboring state. In Hawaii, it took the leadership of Gov. Josh Green and the collaboration of multiple agencies to make it happen to accelerate the recovery of Hawaii Island communities and to be ready for more storms in the coming weeks,” Jim Alberts, HECO senior vice president and chief operations officer, said in a statement.

Weather impacts from Tropical Storm Moke have slowed repair efforts, according to HECO.

About 6,390 Hawaii Island customers remained without power Monday.

Crews are continuing restoration work in some of the hardest-hit areas, including additional parts of Kaloko Mauka, Holualoa, Mountain View, Glenwood, Ahualoa, Hawaiian Beaches, Pa‘auilo Mauka, Kohala Mountain, Fern Forest, Hawaiian Shores, Tangerine Drive, Nanawale, Na‘alehu, Punalu‘u, Leilani Estates, Kalapana and Kapoho.
