Fervo Energy began selling electricity from Cape Station on September 30, one day ahead of schedule.
The first third of the geothermal project is operating after 23 months of construction, and the station is designed to reach 100 megawatts.
Google and Southern California Edison have committed to buy power.
Fervo says the wider installation could eventually reach up to 4 gigawatts; that is a compan…

Obviously on such a short visit I won't have the full picture of the politics involved but one of Iceland's main industries is smelting Aluminium.
Because energy is extremely cheap due, mainly, to the availability of geothermal power, the island encouraged foreign investment in smelters.
Bauxite is imported from far away (South America and Australia) to be made into Aluminium in Iceland and then re-exported.
There's controversy about this because the companies pay little or no tax and the environmental concerns are mounting.
Unfortunately there's not much - apparently - that Iceland can do with all the available electricity it produces and there is, it seems, not much interest in data centres due to the geographic isolation.
There's obviously a Very Big Picture here that I can't get a grip on as a flying tourist.
