Sea Solar Power could provide 1000% of Hawaii's needs.

You may be right, but considering how sea solar power works, on the temperature gradient between the cold deep ocean and the warm tropical surface, Hawaii is one of the few places it could work at all. By all means, someone should develop it for that location and others where it's practical.
