Carson City, Nevada. ElectraTherm, Inc., manufacturer of Green Energy Machines which
convert geothermal and industrial waste heat or pressure into emission free electricity, stole
the show at this year's "Geothermal Resources Council Annual Meeting" held in Reno,
Nevada in conjunction with the Geothermal Energy Association International Tradeshow. The

The paper, presented by Professor Nikola Stosic was
written by ElectraTherm innovator and CEO, Richard
Langson, Professor Ian Smith and Professor Nikola
Stosic (IMechE's 2005 prestigious James Clayton prize
winners) and Dr. Ahmed Kovacevic, all well recognized
as the world leaders in compressor and expander
technology, addressed both scientific and cost effective
aspects of ElectraTherm's "Modular Power Plant". The
Power Plant, which ElectraTherm exhibited in its booth,
helped the company capture the "Best in Show" award
from the Geothermal Energy Association.
Bill Olson, a co-founder and Vice President of Business Development at ElectraTherm, finds
the awards particularly gratifying. "Since this was ElectraTherm's debut at the geothermal
industry's premier conference and trade show, I find recognition by its leaders a real validation
of the company's technology." ElectraTherm has sold 50 and 500 kilowatt, emission free,
commercial power plants this year, as well as gas pressure reduction generation equipment.
"Along with peer acceptance, the market provides real proof of the value of our technology.
Some of the nation's largest energy producers are reviewing ElectraTherm's green energy
equipment for installation, which will significantly reduce pollution as they generate electricity."
The Geothermal Resources Council Conference is held annually in conjunction with the
GEA's trade show, and together comprise the largest international event for the geothermal
power industry. The 2007 event was held October 1-3 at John Ascuaga's Nugget in Sparks
(Reno), Nevada. Speakers included Nevada Governor Jim Gibbons, Assistant Secretary, US
Department of Energy Alexander Karsner and Deputy Assistant Secretary, US Department of
Interior, Michael Olsen.
