WING features Jeanine Vany’s vision for geothermal energy

Eavor’s Executive Vice President of Corporate Affairs Jeanine Vany was spotlighted by WING’s Women in Geothermal USA publication, accentuating her career as a geoscientist and her perseverance in scaling Eavor’s next-generation geothermal technology.

The article first delves into her transition from the oil and gas sector to sustainable energy, and how Vany saw the opportunity to challenge the status quo of geothermal. Along with her co-founders, she invested countless hours into building robust technology designed to make geothermal energy viable and accessible virtually anywhere in the world.

The article describes her expertise in risk assessment, mapping, and well prognosis as instrumental in establishing Eavor’s technological foundation. Vany led Eavor’s development of the first Eavor-Loop™, a closed-loop geothermal system that was piloted near Rocky Mountain House, AB. Her expertise and strategic partnerships also helped secure Eavor’s first commercial project in Geretsried, Germany, earning support from Chancellor Olaf Scholz.

Now focusing on policy and regulatory affairs, Vany advocates for reforms to accelerate geothermal adoption in North America. She leads initiatives like the Alberta Drilling Accelerator, which aims to create Canada’s first geothermal test bed. Furthermore, her work with organizations such as Geothermal Rising and the International Geothermal Association allows her to collaborate with leading energy experts, shaping unified strategies for the future of permitting and funding in the geothermal industry.

The article amplifies Vany’s ambitions to see geothermal as a mainstream energy source in the future, one that can inspire young professionals to journey into the industry. To those eager to start, Vany commented:

“Say yes to opportunities that challenge you. Be coachable, focus on communication, and don’t be afraid to dive into complex problems.”
