CBC Radio-Canada features Eavor’s John Redfern and Chris Cheng

CBC Radio-Canada recently interviewed Eavor CEO John Redfern and Development Engineering Manager Chris Cheng, platforming Eavor’s closed-loop system and how it’s poised to revolutionize the geothermal landscape.

The interview, which included a visit to the Eavor-Lite™ facility near Rocky Mountain House Alta., offered a firsthand look at the practical application of the technology. At the site, Cheng detailed the operational success of Eavor-Lite™ over the past four years and emphasized its consistent delivery of the forecasted energy output.

Eavor-Lite™, the company’s inaugural prototype, served as a tangible demonstration of the critical elements of Eavor’s technologies at the lowest cost. This included the sealing of the wellbores and the validation of the thermosiphon effect.

Cheng explained that this demonstration also proved that Eavor-Loop™ technology eliminates exploration risks, which increases financial viability and ensures access to this energy 24-7.

“By removing the need for a pump and the risk of geological exploration, we are much more likely to make money and be more predictable; therefore, become easier to finance,” said Cheng in the interview.

Notably, Eavor has been successful in attracting substantial investments this last year, such as the $90 million investment from Canada Growth Fund (CGF), which was a monumental contribution to Eavor’s $182 billion Series B funding.

According to Redfern, Eavor has successfully laid the foundations of a transformative industry. He explained that the proprietary technology, protected by Eavor’s patents, coupled with energy production in Geretsried will encourage exponential global interest.

“Geretsried is transformational. By the end of next year, we should be able to produce electricity on-site. This will be the milestone that will trigger an avalanche of money and customers,” said Redfern in the interview.

As Eavor continues to push boundaries within the renewable energy sector, these financial achievements position the company as a trailblazer in the global pursuit of sustainable and reliable energy solutions.
