Geothermal energy developers plan to pump 24 million gallons of water into the side of a dormant volcano in central Oregon this summer to demonstrate technology they hope will give a boost to a green energy sector that has yet to live up to its promise.
Even so, the federal government, Google and other investors are interested enough to bet $43 million on the Oregon project.The U.S. Department of Energy has given the project $21.5 million. That has been matched by private investors, among them Google with $6.3 million.
