Bill passed in New Mexico set to boost substantial geothermal power in the state
The New Mexico Senate unanimously approved three new bills prioritizing environmental initiatives, notably including House Bill 91, or the Geothermal Resources Project Fund. This legislation allocates $2.5 million towards future geothermal energy projects, tapping into the Earth’s subsurface heat for electricity generation, hot water provision, and heating and cooling solutions. Additionally, the bill establishes a geothermal projects fund and revolving loan fund to facilitate grants and loans for project financing and cost-benefit studies.
RBC Climate Action Institute platforms Eavor as a case study in reducing Canadian emissions
RBC Climate Action Institute has introduced Eavor as a case study for how to tackle challenges Canada faces in transitioning away from fossil fuels. Eavor’s technology, as explained by Redfern, taps into the immense potential of geothermal energy by harnessing the heat from hot subsurface rock, a resource readily available across the globe. This innovative approach not only yields zero greenhouse gas emissions and mitigates air pollution but it also minimizes water usage and has a small surface footprint.
Go-Anywhere geothermal estimated to be close to a $1 trillion investment breakthrough
Geothermal is estimated to be near a “breakthrough” that could accumulate US$1 trillion in investments by 2050, according to a recent article published by Wood Mackenzie. While conventional geothermal is restricted to niche geologies that have a high thermal gradient at a shallow depth, Next-Generation Geothermal has the capacity to be implemented across the planet. In Eavor’s case, Eavor-Loop™ systems can extract energy from zero permeability rock with an average thermal gradient, which is more common to find in subterranean landscapes.
