Enhanced Geothermal Notches Another Win as Google Buys 400 MW from Fervo The recent announcement that Google will purchase nearly half a gigawatt of electricity from Fervo's Cape Station power plant in Utah has reignited interest in enhanced geothermal systems (EGS).
This deal highlights the intersection of corporate sustainability goals and technological innovation, raising important questions about Google's commitment to net zero emissions by 2030.
The Fervo deal is significant not only because of its scale but also because of the potential for EGS to transform the geothermal landscape.
