Geothermal Steam
CalEnergy Generation operates The Casecnan project – a hydroelectric facility located in the northern part of Luzon, the Philippines’ main island, which provides energy from naturally occuring resources.

Run-of-the-River Hydro
The Casecnan project uses nonpolluting, renewable, indigenous hydroelectric sources, as water from the Casecnan and Taan Rivers is collected and diverted by two small diversion weirs. In addition to the project's electricity generation, diverted water also is used for agricultural purposes.

Geothermal Virtual Tour
Learn how the geothermal process works by taking a virtual tour of one of CalEnergy's geothermal plants.

Hydroelectric Virtual Tour
Learn how hydropower plants take advantage of a naturally occurring, continuous process that involves the cycling of water through the environment, known as the hydrologic cycle, to convert the potential energy from flowing water into electrical energy. Wind is used to produce electricity by taking a virtual tour of the process.
