Bill Gates-backed Fervo Energy expands partnership with Google, to supply 396 megawatt of geothermal power; deal comes as Americans frown upon datacenters’ rising demand for electricity centers

Fervo Energy will supply Google with geothermal power starting in 2028. This new deal involves nearly 400 megawatts for a Utah data center. Geothermal energy provides reliable, continuous electricity, unlike weather-dependent sources. Data center demand is rapidly increasing due to artificial intelligence growth. Bill Gates’ Breakthrough Energy Ventures backs Fervo Energy’s innovative projects.
