    Includes bibliographical references (p. 19-29). OSTI ID: 882442.The Hawaii Deep Water Cable Program has succeeded unequivocally in determining the feasibility of deploying a submarine power cable system between the islands of Hawaii and Oahu. Major accomplishments of the program include designing, fabricating and testing an appropriate power cable, developing an integrated system to control all aspects of the cable laying operation, and testing all deployment systems at sea in the most challenging sections of the route.U.S. Department of EnergyDOE Contract Number DE-AC01-82CE7621

    The Hawaii Deep Water Cable Program (HDWCP) is a research and development effort to determine the feasibility of installing and operating a submarine power transmission system between the Islands of Hawaii and Oahu in the Hawaiian Archipelago. The benefits of such a system have been identified and discussed in past documents. The purpose of this briefing is to summarize the present status of technology transfer opportunities from this R&D effort. This research is fully consistent with the U.S. Department of Energy, Electric Energy Systems, program strategy of long-term, high-risk, potentially high-payoff research that will meet national security objectives, protect public health and safety, and fulfill efficiency and fuel substitution objectives. It supports the national objective of providing reliable sources of electricity at the lowest possible cost with minimal adverse environmental impact.The Hawaii Deep Water Cable (HDWC) program has used Federal funding to develop technologies which have application well beyond the immediate needs of the State of Hawaii
