At Puna Geothermal Venture, state-of-the-art technology generates power by tapping deep into the heart of the Big Island of Hawaii—to the vast underground cauldron of Kilauea’s volcanic heat—converting steam into electricity for Hawaii Island residents.
Puna Geothermal Venture is the only commercial producer of geothermal energy in Hawaii, quietly producing geothermal-generated electricity for Hawaii Electric Light Company, working to be a good neighbor, and a steady supplier of power.
