Kaishan Unveils Terravanta, Breaks Ground In Loxley

Kaishan Compressor USA of Loxley has unveiled Terravanta Power Systems and broke ground for a manufacturing facility in Loxley. The project establishes a new U.S. manufacturing platform dedicated to supporting the growing geothermal energy sector. Terravanta, a wholly owned Kaishan subsidiary, was created to meet that need. It is supported by the broader Kaishan Group, a global industrial organization with more than 70 years of experience in manufacturing, power generation and geothermal development. The company plans to invest $74.5 million in a 200,000-ft2 manufacturing and assembly facility and draws upon geothermal experience developed through projects across multiple continents. Terravanta will manufacture advanced screw and turbine expander systems that serve as critical components for geothermal projects across the U.S. Terravanta’s modular wellhead designs, powered by efficient expanders, provide a competitive advantage in the marketplace. Local manufacturing capabilities, short lead times and strategic partnerships delivering advanced geothermal exploration technologies will help accelerate geothermal deployment nationwide.
