San Emidio Geothermal Plant, in Washoe County, Nevada, is a geothermal power plant with a design capacity of 11.8 megawatts (15,800 hp).

The older 3.6-megawatt (4,800 hp) plant, originally known as the Empire Geothermal Plant, which was sold by Empire Geothermal Power LLC to U.S. Geothermal Inc. in 2008,[4] was commissioned in 1987.

Phase I of the reconstruction added an 8.6-megawatt (11,500 hp) generator.

[2][3][5][6] In January, 2020, the BLM initiated an environmental assessment concerning a possible new 40-megawatt (54,000 hp) power plant, substation, as many as 25 geothermal and injection wells, a 7.5 mile above ground pipeline and a 58 mile long power line terminating in Fernley, NV.
