When it first began operations in 1966, the Matsukawa Geothermal Power Plant was the Japan’s very first source of geothermal power.
You can learn more about this historic facility at the Geothermal Exhibit, a small museum located just nearby that has educational videos, displays, and an actual steam turbine!
Step outside the building and you can see the power plant’s large cooling tower overlooking the area.
In 2016, the plant was designated by the Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers as a mechanical monument.
