Current Geothermal Installations

Current Geothermal Installations in Colorado are made up of thermal use applications. These applications include; aquaculture, district heating, greenhouses, resorts/pools, and space heating. These five application types represent 28 MWt (megawatt thermal) and 140 GWh/yr (thermal). At this time no electrical generation in Colorado is a product of Geothermal energy, but projects are on the drawing board.
