Kaldara innovative approach to geothermal power plants is both in electrical power production and development of power production equipment for geothermal electricity production.

Increased awareness in environmental issues worldwide calls for a new approach to geothermal utilization. The Kaldara modular and flexible solution is an ideal entry to harness delicate areas for geothermal electrical power production, even in vicinity of areas of national importance.

Innovative technology

The KAPS (Kaldara Power System) is a small, modular and transportable electrical power generating unit that uses pollution free geothermal energy from the earth.
The KAPS units can be installed at production site in days rather than years and will open up the possibility of utilizing temporary access to geothermal wells.

Advantages by the KAPS:
• Modular
• Containerized
• Flexible
• Transportable
• Easily maintained

Containers are used as on-site buildings and by appropriate arrangement and environmental painting they can be made to resemble and adjust to the surrounding nature.

Kaldara Green Energy is a Norwegian/Icelandic company, with focus on production of KAPS geothermal electrical power production equipment. KAPS units are now economically viable by mass production in highly qualified manufacturing process and can compete in price with larger size geothermal turbines/power plants but with better risk management.
