Kenai (Ormat's geothermal plant in Alaska)

The Kenai geothermal plant, operated by Ormat Technologies in Alaska, harnesses heat from the Earth to generate electricity. Geothermal energy comes from the naturally occurring heat beneath the Earth's surface, which can be accessed by drilling wells. At Kenai, the steam produced from underground reservoirs turns turbines to create electricity, providing a renewable energy source with a lower environmental impact compared to fossil fuels. This facility contributes to Alaskan power needs and showcases the potential of geothermal energy as a sustainable alternative.
