In this interview, Rob Klenner tells us about GreenFire Energy's transition to full-spectrum geothermal development and focus ...
Geothermal energy has great potential, but it has been underused for years. Although it’s been available for over a century, ...
where about 40% of the city’s heating needs are met through geothermal sources. EGS involves extracting heat by creating fractures in hot dry rocks and circulating fluids. This method is particularly ...
Nevada has long been a leader in traditional geothermal energy development due to plentiful and accessible geologic hotspots. Second only to California in geothermal production potential in the U.S., ...
The third method is the category of enhanced or engineered geothermal systems (EGS). Unlike geothermal heating and cooling methods, EGS encompasses resources with temperatures hot enough to ...
Fervo’s private Cape Station enhanced geothermal systems (EGS) project sits just a stone’s throw away from the U.S. Department of Energy’s Frontier Observation for Research in Geothermal Energy (FORGE ...
This suite of technologies is known as enhanced geothermal systems, or EGS. While EGS tech can vary, these advanced systems generally use boreholes instead of fractures to create a closed loop for ...
Technologies commonly used in oil and gas are making it cheaper to drill deep into hot reservoirs to generate geothermal ...
