Supports the construction of a high-temperature geothermal power plant on the Oregon Institute of Technology campus, making OIT the only campus in the world to satisfy all of its electricity needs from a geothermal energy source. The power plant, along with its companion low-temperature binary plant would become a demonstration site and pilot project for potential users or developers throughout the region and the country, as well as an educational training facility for OIT students and faculty. Research projects would be funded from the savings and income generated from the plant, making OIT students more competitive in the business world and especially in the renewable energy market.
