    Ormat Technologies Selected for Up to $35M in US DOE Geothermal Funding

    Question

    Ormat Technologies Selected for Up to $35M in US DOE Geothermal Funding

    Direct answer

    The US Department of Energy selected Ormat Technologies for up to $35 million in funding to advance Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS) and hydrothermal exploration across its Nevada and Utah asset bases. Geothermal baseload capacity is gaining prominence as hyperscalers seek zero-emission, 24/7 continuous energy generation to power power-hungry data infrastructure.
