Elmore North Geothermal Project (ENGP)

The Elmore North Geothermal Project (ENGP) is proposed to be developed by Elmore North Geothermal, LLC, an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of BHE Renewables, LLC (BHER). The project is on 63 acres of a 160-acre parcel in unincorporated Imperial County, bounded by an unnamed dirt road to the north, Cox Road to the west, Garst Road to the east, and West Sinclair Road to the south. The town of Niland is approximately six miles northeast and the town of Calipatria is approximately six miles southeast from the project site.

ENGP would have a maximum continuous rating of approximately 157 megawatts (MW) gross, with an expected net output of roughly 140 MW. The project includes geothermal production wells, pipelines, fluid and steam handling facilities, a solids handling system, a Class II surface impoundment, a service water pond, a stormwater retention basin, process fluid injection pumps, a power distribution center, borrow pits, and injection wells.

Main components of MBGP include a steam turbine generator system, geothermal fluid processing system, two seven-cell cooling towers, 21 wells (including production and injection wells) and 13 well pads, and a .5-mile long aboveground interconnection to the Imperial Irrigation District switching station.
