ADK/Borealis Geothermal Demonstration Project
The ADK/Borealis Geothermal Demonstration Project is an innovative renewable heat and power project for a remote community in Northern Canada. It will consist of a geothermal plant which will deliver a minimum of +/- 1 MWe of electrical power (sufficient for ~750 homes or the entire community) and also +/- 1 MWth of direct heat, sufficient to power a local greenhouse complex for local food production.
