$400M+ Equity Raised
Funding for Geothermal Expansion
Raised over $400 million in equity and $17 million in grants to scale EGS systems focused on firm clean baseload.
3.5 MW Power Achieved
Geothermal System Milestone
First commercial horizontal well pair geothermal system with 3.5 MW baseline power and 60 L/s flowrate achieved on July 18, 2023.
~70% Cost Reduction
Efficient Drilling Advancements
Reduced drilling time by ~70%, cutting costs from $9.4 million to $4.8 million per well at Cape Station.
33 MW & 320 MW PPAs
Clean Energy Contracts
Signed power purchase agreements totaling 33 MW with Clean Power Alliance and 320 MW with Southern California Edison, avoiding approximately 21,005 metric tons of CO₂ annually.
- Provides 24/7 carbon-free energy via next-generation geothermal power
- Cape Station project fully permitted for up to 2 GW, begins electricity generation in 2026
- Combining geothermal with direct air capture for integrated carbon removal
- Net-zero target: implicit – deploying carbon-free energy at scale by mid-2020s
