What the current evidence supports

Human editorial judgment · 2026-08-20

Track; not yet

Why
Technology is physically validated at field scale (Coso, dual working fluids) with credible industrial backers, but lacks a proven multi-MW commercial reference with published performance while a peer closed-loop tech has already delivered grid power.
Next
Watch for the first commercial GreenLoop retrofit (e.g. EDC Mahanagdong) to publish sustained MWe + capacity factor, and track progress toward the stated 150 MWe-by-2030 goal, before treating as production-ready.
