Fervo Lands 396-MW Geothermal Deal with Google

Fervo Energy has signed a deal to supply Google's data centers with 396 megawatts of geothermal power. The agreement is part of Fervo's Cape Station project in Utah, which is expected to come online in 2028.

The deal marks growing interest from large power consumers in securing around-the-clock clean energy supplies. Google has an option to increase its power purchases by about 600 MW, bringing total potential capacity under the arrangement to nearly 1 gigawatt by June 2030.

Fervo previously signed a 115-MW power purchase agreement with Google and NV Energy in 2024, helping bring additional geothermal power onto Nevada's grid. The companies began working together through Fervo's Project Red geothermal pilot project in Nevada, which came online in 2023.
