AI summary

What happened, with direct paths to the underlying reporting

Fervo Energy’s Cape Station near Milford, Utah, is advancing toward grid connection, potentially making it the first commercial enhanced geothermal system in the U.S. A Google-backed off-take has boosted contracted power to roughly 1 GW, while the company pursues aggressive cost reductions toward a long-term target of $3,000 per kW. If Phase II construction yields the anticipated speed and cost improvements, FRVO could see renewed investor interest over the next 6–12 months.
