Binary cycle. A binary cycle is a method for generating electrical power from geothermal resources and employs two separate fluid cycles, hence binary cycle. The primary cycle extracts the geothermal energy from the reservoir, and secondary cycle converts the heat into work to drive the generator and generate electricity. [1]
Geothermal power is electrical power generated from geothermal energy. Technologies in use include dry steam power stations, flash steam power stations and binary cycle power stations. Geothermal electricity generation is currently used in 26 countries, [1][2] while geothermal heating is in use in 70 countries. [3]
The Sonoma Calpine 3 power plant is one of 22 power plants at The Geysers in the United States. This is a list of operational geothermal power stations with a current installed capacity of at least 10 MW.
