BLM Approves Newcastle Geothermal Development Project in Utah

11 Mar 2025  by blm.gov   
The Bureau of Land Management has approved the Newcastle Geothermal Development project, which is expected to generate up to 20 megawatts of renewable energy on public lands near Newcastle in Iron County.

With this approval, Utah Geothermal Energy Partners is authorized to construct a geothermal power plant, substation, buried powerlines, access roads, two well pads, and up to seven geothermal wells. The total surface area for these modifications is expected to be about 13.9 acres.

By approving projects like this, BLM continues to support Secretary’s Order 3417, “Addressing the National Energy Emergency,” which addresses President Trump’s national emergency declaration by tackling the critical need for a reliable, diversified, growing and affordable supply of energy.
