Pratt & Whitney Power Systems, a unit of United Technologies, has delivered an emissions-free PureCycle power system that will harness heat from geothermal hot water to generate electricity.
That system will produce 20% of the institute’s campus electricity demand, saving the school about $100,000 annually. It will be the first geothermal power production facility in Oregon.
Pratt & Whitney officials say the PureCycle unit can operate with water at temperatures as low as 195 degrees Fahrenheit to generate electrical power around the clock.
