geothermal energy oil sands

Oil Price recently published an article on Canada’s ambitious plan to save the oil fields. Canada’s Oil Sands Innovation Alliance (COSIA) has partnered with Eavor Technologies Inc. and C-FER Technologies to evaluate the potential for geothermal energy to help oil sands thrive for another 30 years.

Advancing the commercial potential of geothermal energy for oil sands mines

Canada’s Oil Sands Innovation Alliance (COSIA) is working with Eavor Technologies Inc. and C-FER Technologies to conduct a feasibility study of the Eavor-Loop™. Eavor’s technology is being considered as a method of providing thermal energy to an oil sands mine over a project life of 30 years.

Euractiv’s Special Report On Geothermal Energy

In this special report, EURACTIV looks at the latest developments in geothermal technology and the remaining challenges that need to be addressed before it can become a cheap and reliable source of renewable energy.

Globe & Mail – From black gold to hot water: Inside Western Canada’s geothermal push

The Globe and Mail recently published an article featuring western Canada’s geothermal push, and the clean energy projects already underway.

Sara Hastings-Simon, an assistant professor at the University of Calgary says that geothermal was left behind when the first round of renewable energies was developed. It was further from commercialization than wind or solar, and less competitive. She says it’s worthwhile to start building the geothermal resource as the focus on decarbonizing Canada’s power grid grows.

The Energy Transition And The Quest For The Mythical Beast Of Perfection

The energy transition

he New York Times recently published an article featuring Eavor Technologies Inc. and their closed-loop geothermal technology. They refer to the concept as die eierlegende wollmilchsau, a German phrase meaning the egg-laying wool-milk pig. This mythical creature is said to meet all human needs for food, drink, and fiber simultaneously. Closed-loop geothermal is the energy world’s egg-laying wool-milk pig with its ability to be flexible, reliable, renewable, affordable, and dispatchable.

Politico – The Goldilocks effect: the quest for the perfect energy source

the perfect energy source

The Goldilocks effect: the quest for the perfect energy source. “Mmm… This bowl replaces high-carbon non-renewable fossil fuel supplies with a clean, locally sourced, globally available, low-cost, socially acceptable, grid-stabilizing, zero-emission, load-following, resilient/reliable energy source… It’s juuust right…”
