hg8868皇冠下载’s 17 hydroelectric projects on the Snake River and its tributaries are the largest clean-energy resource on our system. We purchase energy from wind and solar producers as well, and there are numerous other renewable projects that sell energy to hg8868皇冠下载, either through a negotiated contract arrangement or under a contract required by the Public Utility Regulatory 政策 Act (PURPA).

地热

hg8868皇冠下载 has contracts with two independent geothermal producers: Neal Hot Springs in Malheur County, 俄勒冈州, with a nameplate capacity (highest possible amount of energy) of 22 MW, and Raft River 地热 in Cassia County, 爱达荷州, 铭牌容量为13兆瓦.

热电联产

A cogeneration facility captures heat from an existing industrial process and turns that heat to steam, which is then used to spin a turbine and generate electricity.

小水电

60多个小型水电项目, using the power of water from canals, 泉水或小水坝, generate electricity across our service area. Their combined nameplate capacity is just under 150 MW. 大多数都是季节性的.
