How does clean energy affect rural Americans? In Milford, Utah, a town historically shaped by the boom-and-bust cycles of mining, railroad, and coal, a new player has arrived: the world’s largest next-generation geothermal power plant.
This documentary explores how Fervo Energy’s cutting-edge geothermal project is breathing new life into the community, providing 24/7 green power, stable clean energy jobs, and tripling local business in just a few years. Discover how a project developer’s connection to the community and commitment to hiring locals is fundamentally changing the town’s economic outlook, and how oil and gas workers are meaningfully transitioning to a better future.
Revival is supported by the Clean Economy Project.
