Project - Newberry SHR Geothermal Energy (NEWGEN) Project

Newberry Volcano, located near Bend, Oregon, sits atop one of the largest geothermal heat reservoirs in the western United States. After extensive research, AltaRock Energy and its partners have concluded that Newberry could support a commercially viable enhanced geothermal system (EGS) power plant. Using superhot rock (SHR) extraction technology developed by AltaRock Energy, the Newberry SHR Project could one day generate up to 10 gigawatts of electricity (GWe) – enough to power 3 million homes.
