The order is being recorded under Baker Hughes’ Industrial & Energy Technology segment.
The agreement includes the supply of surface power generation systems that will align with Fervo Energy’s Enhanced Geothermal Systems. This setup is aimed at enhancing the scalability of reliable baseload renewable energy. Baker Hughes will design, engineer, manufacture, and supply equipment for five ORC units, each with a capacity of 60 MW. Deliverables include turboexpanders and BRUSH Power Generation generators.
Lorenzo Simonelli, Baker Hughes chair and CEO, said: “Geothermal power is one of several renewable energy sources expanding globally and proving to be a vital contributor to advancing sustainable energy development. By working with a leader like Fervo Energy and leveraging our comprehensive portfolio of technology solutions, we are supporting the scaling of lower-carbon power solutions that are integral to meet growing global energy demand.”
The order is being recorded under Baker Hughes’ Industrial & Energy Technology division. It builds upon earlier work with Fervo Energy, including subsurface drilling and production technologies provided through the company’s Oilfield Services & Equipment segment.
Tim Latimer, CEO and co-founder of Fervo Energy, commented: “Baker Hughes’ expertise and technology are ideal complements to the ongoing progress at Cape Station, which has been under construction and successfully meeting project milestones for almost two years. Fervo designed Cape Station to be a flagship development that’s scalable, repeatable, and a proof point that geothermal is ready to become a major source of reliable, carbon-free power in the US.”
The Cape Station project is structured in two phases. Phase I targets the delivery of 100 MW of clean energy, expected to start from 2026. Phase II is projected to provide an additional 400 MW by 2028. Overall, the project has secured permits to expand capacity up to 2 gigawatts (GW) of renewable energy.
To support its development, Fervo Energy announced in June 2025 that it had raised $206 million in additional funding. With capital secured and essential permits in place, Phase I construction remains on schedule for its planned operational launch.
The collaboration between Baker Hughes and Fervo Energy demonstrates the role of geothermal power in diversifying renewable energy supply. By combining advanced equipment with innovative geothermal technologies, the Cape Station project aims to set a model for large-scale, reliable, and carbon-free electricity generation in the United States.
