Reported from Hawaii, Ormat Technologies is hoping to beginn drilling exploration wells on the island of Maui as early as next year to determine th efeasibility of developing a geothermal power plant on the island.
This would be an additional plant to the company’s current Puna plant (Puna Geothermal Venture) in Hawaii. The company expects that it must at least drill three exploration wells on the southwestern slope of Haleakala to determine the viability of a project on that site.
