Another binary cycle geothermal power plant was taken into operation in 1967 near Petropavlovsk on the Kamchatka peninsula, Russia. It was rated at 670 kW and ran for an unknown number of years, proving the concept of binary cycle geothermal power plants. [4] The first commercial-sized binary cycle geothermal plant was completed in 1979.
A circuit diagram (or: wiring diagram, electrical diagram, elementary diagram, electronic schematic) is a graphical representation of an electrical circuit. A pictorial circuit diagram uses simple images of components, while a schematic diagram shows the components and interconnections of the circuit using standardized symbolic representations.
Geothermal power stations are similar to other steam turbine thermal power stations in that heat from a fuel source (in geothermal's case, the Earth's core) is used to heat water or another working fluid. The working fluid is then used to turn a turbine of a generator, thereby producing electricity.
Geothermal power stations in the United States are located exclusively within the Western United States where geothermal energy potential is highest. The highest concentrations are located in the Mayacamas Mountains and Imperial Valley of California , as well as in Western Nevada .
A thermal power station, also known as a thermal power plant, is a type of power station in which the heat energy generated from various fuel sources (e.g., coal, natural gas, nuclear fuel, etc.) is converted to electrical energy. [1]

A similar diagram (ancestry unknown) appears on page 36 of IGCC 101 for Public Utilities Commission of Colorado / Steve Jenkins / URS Corporation / February 12, 2007. Context indicates that this applies to the Polk power station which started up July 1996. There are many other relevant diagrams in that PDF.
Husavik facility, Iceland rated 2MW electric power output and 20MW heat power; Unterhaching facility, Germany was commissioned in April 2009 and was the first of its kind (low enthalpy) in southern Germany. This plant produces 3.4MW of electric power and 38MW of heating power for the local township of Unterhaching. The plant shut down in 2017.
