A geothermal project involving the installation and testing of a modular binary-type geothermal power plant is discussed. Three 400 KW SPS binary-cycle units and three ORMAT units have been installed and tested. Negotiations were successfully concluded in a power sales contract with Pacific Power and Light to develop a levelized research power contract. Long-range plans are being developed to heat the city of Lakeview with the exhaust water from the power plants.
