Geothermal Technicians

Geothermal technicians work with equipment that harnesses the earth's natural heat to generate electricity or provide heating and cooling for buildings. At geothermal power plants, they monitor control systems, check pressure gauges and temperatures, and ensure turbines and generators run smoothly throughout their shifts. They perform regular inspections of wells, pipes, and heat exchangers, identifying potential problems before they cause equipment failures. When issues arise, they troubleshoot mechanical and electrical systems, making repairs or coordinating with specialized contractors.
