The Kobayashi Group is the developer of a mixed-use affordable housing multi-family high rise development project for the redevelopment of the State of Hawaii’s Judiciary Department’s Alder Street facility and property. The new public-private partnership and development provides for new Judiciary services and 210 affordable rental units.

As part of the Kobayashi Group’s development priorities and commitment to providing sustainable and lower-cost energy resources, RHA Energy Partners was retained to provide technical, financial, and programmatic assessment of how the Alder Street property could maximize and optimize on-site renewable energy resources. RHA Energy Partners evaluation of the Alder Street property included developing a forecast of the new facilities energy baseline, evaluation of optimally sized rooftop parking canopy PV system, and assessment of potential battery energy storage system.
