Calpine Corporation this week marked the 65th anniversary of The Geysers, one of the world's largest and most productive geothermal energy sites.

The milestone reflects more than six decades of innovation, partnership and sustainable power generation in Northern California, the company said in a media release.

Calpine Corporation is America's largest generator of electricity from natural gas and geothermal resources with operations in competitive power markets.

Since commercial operations began in 1960, The Geysers has been at the forefront of California's energy transformation, producing reliable, around-the-clock renewable power using steam heated by the Earth's core.

Today, Calpine's 13 geothermal power plants across the 45-square-mile terrain generate enough renewable electricity to power approximately 725,000 homes annually.

“The success of The Geysers over the past 65 years is a testament to the people who have cared for it: hardworking, committed individuals who view stewardship as both a duty and a privilege,” said Aimee Blaine, Calpine's Senior Vice President, Geothermal Region.

Calpine has nearly 300 employees and 150 contractors who live and work in Lake and Sonoma Counties, who have helped make The Geysers a “global model for responsible geothermal development” and a cornerstone of California's renewable energy portfolio, the company stated.

“Together with our partners and community, we have built a deep connection to each other and this land,” said Blaine.

“Our shared pride in this work has helped The Geysers remain a global leader in geothermal energy production and environmental responsibility."

To commemorate the milestone, Calpine donated US$65,000 to the Clear Lake Environmental Research Centre (CLERC), a community-based non-profit focused on protecting and restoring the Clear Lake watershed and surrounding ecosystems.

Working across Lake and Sonoma Counties, CLERC coordinates wildfire prevention and habitat restoration efforts.It also brings together science, education and collaboration with local partners and tribes to build a more resilient and sustainable future for Northern California.

California State Senate President pro Tempore Mike McGuire called The Geysers a genuine feat of engineering and dedication.

“And Calpine's commitment to expanding renewable energy while protecting our natural resources is proof that innovation and sustainability are perfect partners in the world's fourth-largest economy.”

He added: “65 years is an incredible milestone for geothermal energy here in Lake and Sonoma counties, and we all look forward to what's ahead as the iconic Geysers continue to help shape California's transition to clean energy for the next generation.”

Project InnerSpace, a nonprofit promoting global geothermal energy, has launched its GeoFund initiative in India with the Tapri Geothermal Cold Storage Project in Himachal Pradesh.

Led by Geotropy, the pilot project uses geothermal energy to power a 500-tonne cold storage and crop drying facility for local apple farmers.

It aims to reduce post-harvest losses, increase farmer incomes, and boost local employment.

Jamie Beard, executive director of Project InnerSpace, said the Tapri project serves as a model for sustainable agriculture and rural development, with similar initiatives planned across the Asia region and beyond — it also represents an endorsement of geothermal energy.

“A widely recognised barrier to the rapid expansion of geothermal energy is the lack of pilot projects to demonstrate impact across different technologies, applications, geologists and geographies globally, where it can be most influential in economic development, energy security and prosperity,” he commented.

“The Tapri pilot project will tackle one of India's most important agricultural challenges, increase revenues and be a global model. We look forward to supporting the Geotropy team in the development of this important project.”

GeoFund was set up to support scalable, high-impact geothermal pilots that traditional financing alternatives may overlook.

With the Tapri pilot project, it is having a direct impact on an industry of vital strategic significance to livelihoods in the area.

The new cold storage facility will provide 500 tonnes of storage and fruit dehydration capacity, helping farmers maintain quality, reduce wastage and sell at premium prices.

The project will also boost local economic growth by creating employment at the local level, reducing crop loss, and generating more predictable revenue sources for farmers and workers.

“This project is more than just a cold storage unit — its purpose is to ensure that our community can develop economically by using its geothermal capacity,” said GeoTropy CEO, Vijay Chauhan.

“Our farmers are already understanding the importance of this work, and now people are waiting to use the facilities available to us.”
