ISCO Specialization 3131.1.4 Geothermal Power Plant Operator

From Open Risk Manual

Definition

Geothermal Power Plant Operator: Geothermal power plant operators operate and maintain equipment, often steam-driven turbines, which produce electrical energy. They monitor measuring equipment to ensure the safety of operations, and that the production needs are met. They also react to system problems, and repair faults. They may regulate the generators to control the flow of electricity to the power lines.
