Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]  
GENERAL AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION GENERAL AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements of Ormat Technologies, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial statements. Accordingly, they do not contain all information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements reflect all adjustments, which include normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2026, the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows and the condensed consolidated statements of equity for the periods presented.
The financial data and other information disclosed in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements related to these periods are unaudited. The results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year. 
These condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 (the “2025 Annual Report”). The condensed consolidated balance sheet data as of December 31, 2025 was derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. 
Dollar amounts, except per share data, in the notes to these financial statements are rounded to the closest $1,000.
Convertible Notes Indentures
On March 20, 2026, the Company completed its offering of $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes, consisting of (i) $825.0 million aggregate principal amount of 1.50% Series A Convertible Senior Notes due 2031 (the “Series A Notes”) and (ii) $175 million aggregate principal amount of 0.00% Series B Convertible Senior Notes due 2031 (the “Series B Notes” and, together with the Series A Notes, the “2031 Convertible Notes”). Each series of 2031 Convertible Notes will mature on March 15, 2031, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased in accordance with its terms prior to such date. For the Series A Notes, interest will accrue at a rate of 1.50% per year and will be payable semiannually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, beginning on September 15, 2026. The Series B Notes will not bear regular interest. The Company will pay special interest, if any, on the Series B Notes as set forth in the indenture governing such notes.
The 2031 Convertible Notes of each series are convertible into cash up to the aggregate principal amount of the notes to be converted and cash, shares of the Company’s common stock or a combination of cash and shares, at the Company’s election, in respect of the remainder, if any, of the Company’s conversion obligation in excess of the aggregate principal amount of the 2031 Convertible Notes being converted. The initial conversion rate for the 2031 Convertible Notes of each series will be 7.1225 shares of the Company’s common stock for each $1,000 principal amount of Series A Notes, equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $140.40 per share of common stock. The conversion rate and related conversion price of the 2031 Convertible Notes of each series may be adjusted under certain circumstances, including in connection with conversions made following a fundamental change or a redemption notice and under other circumstances, in each case as set forth in the applicable indenture.
Prior to November 15, 2030, the 2031 Convertible Notes will be convertible only under the following circumstances: (1) during any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on June 30, 2026 (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of the Common Stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during the period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 150% prior to March 15, 2030, and 130% on or after March 15, 2030, in each case, of the conversion price of such series of 2031 Convertible Notes on each applicable trading day; (2) during the five consecutive business day period immediately after any five consecutive trading day period (the “measurement period”) in which the “trading price” per $1,000 principal amount of the 2031 Convertible Notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock and the conversion rate the 2031 Convertible Notes on each such trading day; (3) if the Company calls any or all of such series of Notes for redemption, at any time prior to the close of business on the second scheduled trading day prior to the redemption date; or (4) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events. On or after November 15, 2030 until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, the Notes can be converted at any time irrespective of the foregoing conditions.
The Company may not redeem either series of 2031 Convertible Notes prior to March 20, 2029. The Company may redeem for cash all or any portion of either or both series of 2031 Convertible Notes, at the Company’s option, on or after March 20, 2029 and on or before the 61st scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, if the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price for the relevant series of 2031 Convertible Notes then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period (including the last trading day of such period) ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides notice of redemption at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2031 Convertible Notes to be redeemed, plus any accrued and unpaid interest or special interest, if any.
Holders of the Series B Notes may require the Company to repurchase for cash all or part of their Series B Notes in principal amounts of $1,000 or a multiple thereof on March 15, 2027 (the “Optional Repurchase Date”) at an optional repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Series B Notes to be repurchased, plus any accrued and unpaid special interest to, but excluding, the optional repurchase date.
If a fundamental change (as defined in the applicable indenture) occurs, holders of each series of 2031 Convertible Notes may require the Company to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their 2031 Convertible Notes at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2031 Convertible Notes to be repurchased, plus (1) in the case of the Series A Notes, accrued and unpaid interest or special interest, or (2) in the case of the Series B Notes, any accrued and unpaid special interest, in each case to, but excluding, the relevant fundamental change repurchase date.
The 2031 Convertible Notes are the Company’s senior unsecured obligations and rank senior in right of payment to any of the Company’s indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the notes; equal in right of payment to any of the Company’s unsecured indebtedness that is not so subordinated, including the Company’s 2.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2027 (the “2027 Convertible Notes”); effectively junior in right of payment to any of the Company’s secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness; and structurally junior to all indebtedness and other liabilities of the Company’s subsidiaries.
The Company incurred $23.5 million of debt discount and issuance costs in respect of the issuance of the 2031 Convertible Notes, which were deferred and are presented as a reduction to the notes’ principal amounts on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The deferred issuance costs are amortized over the term of the 2031 Convertible Notes into interest expenses, net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, $0.4 million was recorded as amortized debt discount and issuance costs under interest expenses, net. The effective interest rate on the 2031 Convertible Notes, including the impact of the deferred debt discount and issuance costs, is 1.7%.
As of March 31, 2026, none of the conditions permitting the holders of the Series A Notes to convert their notes early had been met, and to require the Company to repurchase the Series A Notes for cash. Therefore, the Series A Notes are classified as long-term. As of March 31, 2026, because the one-time repurchase option of the Series B Notes falls within the next 12 months, the Series B Notes are classified as short-term.
The Company used $287.9 million of the net proceeds from the sale of the 2031 Convertible Notes and $25.0 million cash on hand, as well as issued 0.6 million shares of its common stock with a total value of $64.8 million to repurchase $285.9 million aggregate principal amount of the 2027 Convertible Notes through privately negotiated transactions entered into concurrently with the pricing of the offering. The repurchase was accounted for as an induced conversion and resulted in a $33.7 million of induced conversion expense recorded under “Other non-operating income (expense), net” in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 2026, and a $6.7 million charge to “Additional paid-in capital” inclusive of a reduction of unamortized debt issuance costs of $2.0 million. The induced conversion expense represents the fair value of the shares and cash consideration paid to induce conversion of the 2027 Convertible Notes in excess of the fair value of the consideration that would be transferred pursuant to the existing conversion terms.
The following is a summary of the Company’s convertible notes as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

Purchase of Treasury Stock
In connection with the issuance of the 2031 Convertible Notes as described above, the Company used approximately $24.4 million of the net proceeds from the issuance of the 2031 Convertible Notes to repurchase 224,593 shares of its common stock in privately negotiated transactions at a price of $108.00 per share. The Company recorded this purchase as treasury stock on the condensed consolidated statement of equity in the first quarter of 2026.
Business Combination - Solar and Storage Facility Purchase Transaction
On January 29, 2026, the Company closed a purchase transaction with Innergex Renewables USA LLC to acquire a solar and storage facility on the Big Island of Hawaii (“Hoku”), for a total cash consideration of $79.3 million (including customary post-closing working capital adjustments) for 100% of the equity interests in the entity holding this asset. The acquired assets include a 30MW solar PV facility paired with a 30MW/120MWh battery energy storage system, which achieved commercial operation in March 2025. All output from the facility is sold under a 25-year fixed price power purchase agreement with HECO.
As a result of the acquisition, the Company expanded its overall storage and solar generation capacity and expects to improve the profitability of the purchased assets through cost reduction and synergies. The Company accounted for the transaction under ASC 805, Business Combinations and following the transaction, the Company consolidates the storage and solar PV facilities in accordance with ASC 810, Consolidation in its consolidated financial statements starting from the transaction close date. Accounting guidance provides that the allocation of the purchase price may be adjusted for up to one year from the date of the acquisition to the extent that additional information is obtained about the facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date.
During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company incurred $0.8 million of acquisition-related costs. Such costs are included under "General and administrative expenses" in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.
During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the acquired assets contributed $2.0 million to the Company’s Energy Storage revenues, and $1.2 million to the Company's earnings, not including the bargain purchase gain, which were included in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income for that period. Pro forma information is not provided as the Company deemed this information to be immaterial.
The following table summarizes the preliminary purchase price allocation to the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed (in millions):

(1) The gross amount of trade receivables was collected subsequent to the acquisition date.
(2) The fair value of Property, plant and equipment was estimated by applying the income approach and utilizing the discounted cash flow method. This methodology assesses the value of tangible assets by computing the anticipated cash flows expected to be generated by the respective assets.
(3) The bargain purchase gain represents the excess of the fair value of the underlying net assets acquired and liabilities assumed over the purchase consideration and is included in “Other non-operating income (expense), net” in the condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income. The bargain purchase gain is non-taxable and primarily related to the seller being a single-asset corporation aiming to materialize its investment in the facility subsequent to closing a tax equity deal.
Equity Investment in Sage
On January 16, 2026, the Company entered into an amended and restated Series B Preferred Stock purchase agreement with Geosystems, Inc (“Sage”), under which the Company paid $25 million in exchange for less than a 20% ownership in Sage. In addition, the Company received $12 million of equity in exchange for future services it will provide to Sage. Sage is a privately-held company without a readily determinable market value that develops a geo-pressurized geothermal technology designed for power generation. As the Series B Preferred Stock owned by the Company were not in substance common stock due to the liquidation preference and other preferential rights, and had no readily determinable fair value, the Company accounted for its preferred share investment in Sage under the measurement alternative. Under the measurement alternative, the carrying value is measured at cost, less impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. Equity investments without readily determinable fair values are considered impaired when there is an indication that the fair value of the Company’s interest is less than the carrying amount. Changes in value and impairments of equity investments without readily determinable fair values are recognized in “Other non-operating income (expense), net”. Additionally, on a quarterly basis, management is required to make a qualitative assessment of whether the investment is impaired. As of March 31, 2026, the carrying value of the Company’s investment in Sage was $37 million.
TOPP2 Power Plant in New Zealand
In May 2023, the Company signed with Eastland Generation Limited (“EGL”) agreements governing the development, supply, construction, and option to sell the TOPP2 power plant in New Zealand. In August 2025, the Company received an option exercise notice (the “Notice”) from EGL pursuant to which EGL wishes to acquire the TOPP2 power plant in New Zealand pursuant to a previously signed option agreement between the Company and EGL (the “Parties”). During the first
quarter of 2026, the Parties signed and closed the sale agreement and amended the previously signed agreements governing the development, supply, construction, and sale of the TOPP2 power plant. The Company applied the guidance in Accounting Standard Codification 606 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”) to this transaction, under which several criteria must be met before a reporting entity can recognize revenue from contracts with customers. The Company concluded that as of March 31, 2026, following the close of the sale agreement and the amendments to the development, supply and construction agreements of the TOPP2 power plant, all required revenue recognition criteria have been met and as a result, the Company recognized revenues in the amount of $105.1 million from this transaction in the first quarter of 2026, including $12.0 million which was previously recorded as deferred income. The Company recorded the proceeds from the sale of the TOPP2 power plant of $93.1 million under investing activities in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flow, given that the power plant’s construction cost had been previously recorded as capital expenditures.
Settlement Agreement
As previously disclosed, on August 1, 2024, the Company entered into a settlement agreement, effective April 2024, (the “Agreement”) with a third-party battery systems supplier (the “Supplier”). Under the Agreement, the Supplier paid to the Company $35.0 million as a recovery of damages, such as significant loss of potential profit due to project delays, as well as additional costs incurred by the Company, related to locating and purchasing substitute battery solutions from alternative vendors (the “Recovery of Damages”), to settle the dispute. On August 16, 2024, the Company received the Recovery of Damages payment contingent upon certain conditions which the Company expects to be met, on a pro-rata basis, during the period until March 31, 2026. The Company accounted for the Recovery of Damages amount under the guidance of ASC 450, Contingencies, and ASC 705, Cost of Sales and Services, and as a result, deemed $25.0 million as a recovery of damages, which is recognized as income once contingency conditions are met, and $10.0 million as a reduction to the cost of battery systems to be purchased under the Agreement. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, and 2025, the Company recognized income of $3.1 million in both periods. Such income was recorded under “Other operating income” in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. These amounts represent the non-refundable portion of the recovery of damages for which contingency conditions have been met.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
 Impairment of long-lived assets for the three months ended March 31, 2026 of $8.1 million is related to the Pomona 1 battery energy storage facility. During the first quarter of 2026, the Company approved a project to construct the new Pomona 3 storage facility which will replace the existing Pomona 1 storage facility. The Pomona 1 storage facility is scheduled for demolishing in late 2026 to facilitate the construction of the new storage facility. There was no impairment of long-lived assets during the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Write-offs of Unsuccessful Exploration and Storage Activities
 The write-off of unsuccessful exploration and storage activities for the three months ended March 31, 2026 of $2.1 million is related to a certain geothermal exploration project that the Company decided to no longer pursue. The write-off of unsuccessful exploration and storage activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025 of $0.5 million, is related to a number of storage projects that the Company decided to no longer pursue.

Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash investments and accounts receivable.
Cash investments:
The Company places its cash investments with high credit quality financial institutions located in the United States (“U.S.”) and in foreign countries. At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had deposits totaling $27.2 million and $83.6 million, respectively, in ten U.S. financial institutions that were federally insured up to $250,000 per account. At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company’s deposits in foreign countries amounted to $262.0 million and $75.4 million, respectively.
Account receivables:
At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, account receivables related to operations in foreign countries amounted to $111.5 million, and $102.0 million, respectively. At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, accounts receivable from the Company’s primary customers, which each accounted for revenues in excess of 10% of total consolidated revenues for the related period, amounted to 50% and 56% of the Company’s trade receivables, respectively. The aggregate amount of notes receivable exceeding 10% of total receivables as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 is $88.9 million, and $103.2 million, respectively.
 The Company's revenues from its primary customers as a percentage of total revenues are as follows:
Three Months Ended March 31,
20262025
Southern California Public Power Authority (“SCPPA”)11.5 %22.0 %
Sierra Pacific Power Company and Nevada Power Company9.8 16.1 
Kenya Power and Lighting Co. Ltd. ("KPLC")7.9 12.1 
 The Company has historically been able to collect on substantially all of its receivable balances. As of March 31, 2026, the amount overdue from KPLC in Kenya was $31.3 million of which $16.4 million was paid in April 2026. The Company believes it will be able to collect all past due amounts from KPLC. This belief is supported by the fact that in addition to KPLC's obligations under its power purchase agreement, the Company holds a support letter from the Government of Kenya that covers certain cases of KPLC non-payment (such as non-payments that are caused by government actions and/or political events).
In Honduras, as of March 31, 2026, the total amount overdue from Empresa Nacional de Energía Eléctrica ("ENEE") was $26.5 million, of which $1.0 million was paid in April 2026. In addition, due to the financial situation in Honduras, the Company may experience further delays in collection. The Company believes it will be able to collect all past due amounts from ENEE.
Allowance for Credit Losses
The following table describes the changes in the allowance for expected credit losses for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 (all related to trade receivables):
Three Months Ended March 31,

Change in the provision for expected credit losses for the period166 25 
Ending balance of the allowance for expected credit losses$474 $249 
Revenues from Contracts with Customers
 Contract assets related to the Company’s Product segment reflect revenue recognized and performance obligations satisfied in advance of customer billing. Contract liabilities related to the Company's Product segment reflect payments received in advance of the satisfaction of performance under the contract. The Company receives payments from customers based on the terms established in the contracts. Total contract assets and contract liabilities as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 are as follows:
March 31,December 31,
20262025
(Dollars in thousands)
Contract assets (*) $35,671 $30,011 
Contract liabilities (*) $(5,256)$(13,159)
(*) Contract assets and contract liabilities are presented as “Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts” and “Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts”, respectively, on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The contract liabilities balance at the beginning of the year was fully recognized as product revenues during the three months ended March 31, 2026 as a result of performance obligations having been fully satisfied as of March 31, 2026, except for certain immaterial amounts. Additionally, as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, long-term costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts related to the Dominica project in the amount of $79.6 million and $75.0 million, respectively, are included under “Deposits and other” in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, and not under the contract assets and contract liabilities above, due their long-term nature.
On March 31, 2026, the Company had approximately $203.2 million of remaining performance obligations not yet satisfied or partly satisfied related to our Product segment. The Company expects to recognize approximately 100% of this amount as Product revenues during the next 24 months.
Disaggregated revenues from contracts with customers for the three months ended March 31, 2026, and 2025 are disclosed under Note 8 - Business Segments, to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Derivative Instruments 
The Company maintains a risk management strategy that may incorporate the use of swap contracts, put and call options, forward exchange contracts, interest rate swaps, and cross-currency swaps to minimize significant fluctuation in cash flows and/or earnings that are caused by oil and natural gas prices, exchange rate or interest rate volatility.
Transferable Production and Investment Tax Credits
The Inflation Reduction Act (“IRA”) that was signed into law in August 2022, introduced a transferability provision for certain tax credits related to the clean production of energy. The recent enactment of the One Big Beautiful Bill (“OBBB” or “OBBBA”) continues to allow the transfer of certain clean energy tax credits. Under the OBBBA, a reporting entity can monetize such credits through sale to a third party. The option for transferability of credits applies to taxable years beginning after December 31, 2022. Several of the Company’s projects, which are not currently part of a tax monetization transaction, generate eligible tax credits, such as ITCs and PTCs, that are eligible to be transferred to a third-party under the provisions of the OBBBA. The Company accounts for ITCs under ASC 740 through the “Income tax (provision) benefit” line in the condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income. PTCs are accounted similarly to refundable or direct-pay credits outside of the “Income tax (provision) benefit” line with income recognized in the “Income attributable to sale of tax benefits” line in the condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income. Income recognized related to the expected sale of such transferable PTCs during the three months ended March 31, 2026, was $1.6 million, net of discount, and $7.3 million, net of discount, for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Tax benefits recognized under Income tax (provision) benefit related to transferable ITCs during the three months ended March 31, 2026, was $23.0 million, net of discount, and $13.9 million, net of discount, for the three months ended March 31, 2025.
