Steam escapes from a well at Raser Technologies' geothermal plant near Minersville, Utah.

Five years after going public, geothermal company Raser Technologies Inc is on the verge of a major milestone: earning real revenue. Later this year, the renewable energy producer will open its first power plant in the Utah desert near the tiny town of Minersville. The plant will use hot water from deep underground to produce power for about 9,000 homes in Anaheim, California, the hometown of Disneyland.
