Abstract

The existing generating capacity of The Geysers Power Plant constitutes about 5% of the total electric generating capacity of the PG and E system. The Geysers geothermal resource has and will continue to play an important role in our overall planning for generation additions. By 1979, four more units, Units 12 to 15, ranging in capacity from 55,000 kW to 135,000 kW, are planned to be in operation, ailmost doubling the capacity of The Geysers Power Plant to 908,000 kW.
