The Dogwood Geothermal Energy Project includes a 25-megawatt (MW) geothermal energy facility, two 20,000-gallon aboveground isopenlane storage tanks, a 7 MW solar photovollaic field, and a medium voltage distribution line from the proposed solar facility to the proposed geothermal plant. The cable would be co-located along an existing above ground pipeline. The Heber 2 Solar Energy Project would be a 15 MW solar photovoltaic field (that would connect directly to the Heber 2 geothermal power plant.
