Geothermal power plant steam vents in desert landscape illustrating large renewable PPA for tech energy demand

Key Points

  • 01Fervo Energy signs a 396 MW power purchase agreement with Google
  • 02PPA sources carbon-free power from the Cape Station GeoCluster in Utah
  • 03Cape Station expansion is expected to come online in 2028
  • 04Google holds option to add about 600 MW more by June 2030

Largest enhanced geothermal PPA signed

Fervo Energy has entered into a 396-megawatt power purchase agreement with Google to supply carbon-free electricity from the Cape Station enhanced geothermal GeoCluster in Utah. The company describes this agreement as the world’s largest enhanced geothermal PPA to date, underscoring the scale of the planned power supply. The deal is part of Fervo’s commercial model to directly deliver clean, firm power to large electricity users.

Fervo states that the agreement enables continued development of the Cape Station GeoCluster beyond its initial 100 megawatt phase. The project is based on enhanced geothermal systems designed to provide around-the-clock electricity, addressing growing demand for reliable, low-carbon power from major technology customers.

Cape Station development timeline and capacity

The expansion of the Cape Station GeoCluster beyond the initial 100 megawatt phase is expected to come online in 2028. The new PPA is structured to unlock additional electricity capacity from the site while, according to Fervo, imposing no cost on existing ratepayers. The company positions Cape Station as a key asset for delivering 24/7, carbon-free power at scale.

Under the terms of the agreement, Google receives an option to expand its offtake by about 600 megawatts by June 2030. If this option is exercised and required approvals and conditions are met, total potential contracted capacity from Cape Station could reach nearly 1 gigawatt. This potential expansion would significantly increase the volume of geothermal power dedicated to Google’s long-term energy needs.

Support for potential Google data center

Fervo states that the power purchased under the agreement is designed to serve as a foundational building block for a potential Google data center in Utah. By tying enhanced geothermal supply to possible new computing infrastructure, the deal links long-duration carbon-free power directly to future digital capacity needs.

Company representatives highlight that enhanced geothermal systems are positioned to power the next generation of computing infrastructure by offering scalable, always-on clean energy. The agreement is also framed as part of a broader effort to make advanced geothermal technologies more affordable and accessible, while generating economic benefits for communities in southwest Utah.

Key Takeaways

  • 01The new 396 MW agreement marks a major scaling step for enhanced geothermal as a firm, carbon-free power source for large technology customers.
  • 02Cape Station’s planned 2028 expansion and Google’s 600 MW option create a pathway to nearly 1 GW of potential contracted capacity at a single geothermal site.
  • 03Linking the PPA to a potential Utah data center shows how long-duration clean power contracts are being integrated into future computing infrastructure plans.
