Is Google Interested in Ormat's Geothermal Technology?

There's enough geothermal energy 3 miles does on the west coast, such that harvesting 2 percent would supply for the entire nation's electric needs. With modern drilling techniques learned from the oil industry, it is within reach. Given that energy is of long term strategic interest to Google, it is easy to understand why they seek to make it a competitive advantage. It doesn't hurt either that the public will further enshrine Google if it helps bring long term relief to energy costs as well as decrease our dependence on rogue nations.
