The project could increase copper recovery by 25 million pounds or more annually, depending on the geothermal resources.<\/p>\n<p>The microgrid and battery elements represent about half of the cost and only will be at the Morenci mine. They will add reliability to the electrical distribution system in Morenci, Clifton and potentially the regional grid and provide battery storage for back-up during power outages.<\/p>\n<p>The total cost of the project, including the geothermal and power grid elements, is approximately $175 million, including the DOE contribution.
