Next-Generation Geothermal

Next-Generation Geothermal for Scalable, Clean Baseload Power
Turboden is pioneering the future of geothermal power by combining Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) technology with Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS) (or AGS/SHR) - a synergy that enables scalable, reliable, and low-emission baseload electricity.

Our collaboration with Fervo Energy on the Cape Station project in Utah marks a significant milestone in deploying this next-generation geothermal approach.

  • LIGHTING DOCK - 14 MW GEOTHERMAL PLANT

WHY ORC + EGS/AGS/SHR?

Enhanced Geothermal Systems, Closed Loop Systems, Super Hot Rock systems unlock heat from deep, hot, dry rock formations - previously inaccessible with conventional hydrothermal methods.

When paired with Turboden’s advanced ORC technology, this heat can be efficiently converted into electricity, even at moderate temperatures (from 150 to 300+ °C).

Engineering Excellence
Turboden’s proprietary solutions include:

  • Modular Scalability (standard modules of 20, 30, 50+ MW net)

  • Tailor-made axial multistage turbines (with isentropic efficiency > 90%)

  • In-house designed Air-cooled condenser, heat exchangers and control systems

  • Turboanalytics AI tool for predictive performance optimization

Next-Generation Geothermal

MEETING TOMORROW’S ENERGY DEMAND - FROM VISION TO REALITY

With electrification driven by exponential growth in power consumption, Next-Generation Geothermal + ORC offers a clean, scalable solution. The U.S. alone has an estimated 7,500+ GW of EGS potential, and Turboden is at the forefront of turning this potential into baseload power to the grid.

We are no longer talking about potential—we are implementing reality. Turboden’s integration of ORC with Next-Generation Geothermal is setting a new standard for power generation, delivering clean energy at scale.
