ElectraTherm, a leader in small-scale, distributed power generation from waste heat, was awarded Phases II and III of its Department of Energy (DOE) grant to demonstrate its Waste Heat-to-Power (WHP) technology using co-produced fluids. The government grant helps accelerate the development of ElectraTherm’s technology through a geothermal demonstration site at Florida Canyon Mine in Imlay, Nevada.
ElectraTherm was awarded Phase I of the $982,000 grant from the DOE in 2010 to research and develop an optimized solution for power generation using geothermal and co-produced fluid. Following successful R&D, the DOE awarded Phases II and III to manufacture and commission a newly developed Green Machine with a cleanable heat exchanger, an increased power output of 75kWe and a fully-containerized solution for ease of transportation and installation. The unit has been built and is currently undergoing testing at ElectraTherm. It will be installed at Florida Canyon Mine in the coming months.
