Back in October, Western GeoPower (TSX: WGP) announced their intent to rebuild a power plant on the site of old “PG&E Unit 15” commencing operations in 2009. This is interesting in that there was a plant on that site producing 65MW from 1979-89. By resizing the plant to 25MW (net,) Western GeoPower believes that they’ll get 50 years of operation from the site producing some 200,000 MWh per year.
