FLOW CONTROLGEOTHERMAL

Zanskar has revitalized New Mexico's Lightning Dock Geothermal Plant, which it purchased in 2024, turning it from a poorly performing facility into a productive one. The company drilled a new well in 2025, increasing the plant's energy production to an average net 10.8 megawatts per hour, enough to power over 9,000 homes.

The plant is now considered one of the most productive pumped geothermal wells in the U.S. As the geothermal industry gains traction, Zanskar plans to explore additional geothermal power opportunities in New Mexico. The state's geothermal potential remains significant despite historical challenges.
