President's Day Sale - 70% Off

Ormat Techno ( (ORA) ) has issued an announcement.

On February 17, 2026, Ormat Technologies announced it had signed a long-term geothermal power purchase agreement with NV Energy to supply up to 150 MW of new geothermal capacity to support Google’s Nevada data center operations. Enabled by NV Energy’s Clean Transition Tariff and pending approval by Nevada regulators expected in the second half of 2026, the multi-project portfolio is designed to bring new geothermal plants online between 2028 and 2030.

Under the portfolio structure, projects will be added as they reach commercial operation, with the contract running from the first project’s start date to 15 years beyond the final project’s commissioning, providing long-term revenue visibility for Ormat and predictable clean power for Google. The deal underscores geothermal’s role as reliable, carbon-free baseload power amid AI-driven demand growth and highlights a scalable tariff model that can be replicated in other U.S. markets, reinforcing Ormat’s growth strategy and Nevada’s clean-energy leadership while insulating other ratepayers from additional costs.

The most recent analyst rating on (ORA) stock is a Hold with a $130.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Ormat Techno stock, see the ORA Stock Forecast page.
