A new simulation video from Herrenknecht AG shows off its Urban Vibro Trucks. The machines can deploy thumping devices from their mid-sections that send seismic waves beneath city landscapes to explore the terrain for geothermal development.Continue Re… Continue reading Urban Vibro Trucks will thump city streets for geothermal options
A potentially game-changing and largely unexplored energy jackpot lies beneath the ocean floor, according to a whitepaper from geoscience tech consultancy CGG. Unique conditions under the sea bed promise cheaper and more accessible geothermal power.Con… Continue reading Massive geothermal potential found offshore, where the Earth splits
Geothermal development company Fervo Energy has announced impressive strides being made at its Cape Station facility in southern Utah. The results could lead to a quicker and more widespread uptake of this super-clean energy production process.Continue… Continue reading Advanced geothermal drilling is 70% faster and 50% cheaper than 2022
The world needs gargantuan amounts of clean energy moving forward, making this an area of colossal and growing opportunity for disruptive innovations. Here are some of the fascinating energy ideas and technologies that made us most hopeful in 2023.Cont… Continue reading There’s hope yet: Clean energy advances that inspired us in 2023
Google has announced that its innovative advanced geothermal plant in Nevada is now operational and connected to the grid, pioneering an approach that promises to unlock clean, always-on geothermal energy across a much larger range of locations.Continu… Continue reading Google switches on first-of-its-kind advanced geothermal project
Sage Geosystems has pioneered a new form of cheap energy storage that uses the Earth as a giant bellows, pumping water into underground fractures, then letting it squirt back up at 70% efficiency – or 200% efficiency if you also harvest heat energy.Con… Continue reading Huff ‘n’ puff geothermal fracking: Earth batteries at 200% efficiency
Fervo’s “next-generation geothermal” technology has proven itself in testing, becoming the most productive enhanced geothermal plant in history. The company hopes its approach will radically expand access to clean energy, like shale did for oil.Continu… Continue reading Fervo heralds a revolution in geothermal power technology
The intense heat under the Earth’s surface represents a virtually inexhaustible source of reliable clean energy that would be available 24/7 from anywhere on Earth – you could pull it up as steam to run generator turbines, or pipe it directly into dist… Continue reading “Walking” anchor and plasma drill promise cheap, deep geothermal power
As society transitions toward renewable energy sources, energy storage inevitably comes to mind. Researchers at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign have found one way to store renewable energy that …read more Continue reading AGES of Renewable Energy Storage
Humanity thus far has supplied most of its electricity needs by burning stuff, mostly very old stuff that burns great but is hard to replace. That stuff is getting increasingly …read more Continue reading Dancers Now Help Power Glasgow Nightclub
