John Redfern pinpoints how Canada can become a global geothermal leader

Eavor CEO John Redfern emphasized that a current “arms race” taking place in the geothermal industry could make Canada a world leader in geothermal energy production, and how the Alberta Drilling Accelerator (ADA) is key to achieving that. In an interview with DOB Energy, Redfern stressed the importance of meticulous preparation and research to advance collaboration with the ADA. He explained that extensive consultations are being conducted with interested parties, reviewing similar international initiatives, and examining various governance and economic models to ensure the project’s success.

Next-Generation Geothermal allowing more people to “take control of their energy destiny.”

Energy independence was the focal point of an article written by author James Dean, who highlighted the significant potential of Eavor’s Advanced Geothermal Systems (AGS) in achieving this goal for individuals and communities alike. The article emphasizes that pursuing energy independence by implementing innovative technologies offers multiple benefits. Geothermal energy is significantly cleaner than fossil fuels, emitting 99 percent less carbon dioxide, as geothermal plants do not utilize combustion. Rather, Eavor harnesses heat from the earth by introducing a working fluid into a closed-loop system, where the fluid extracts heat via conduction and transports the energy to the surface for district heating, cooling, and electricity.

IHFC features quality score evaluations for heat flow data in 2024 report

The International Heat Flow Commission (IHFC) has published an updated set of global heat-flow data. This data, gathered from 1939 to 2024, helps scientists understand the Earth’s internal heat. The data collection is part of a global project that has been improving to ensure high-quality information since May 2021. The 2024 update includes new heat-flow measurements published since April 2023, adding to a total of 91,182 data points from 1,586 scientific publications. Most of these measurements (57 percent) come from land areas, while the rest (43 percent) are from the ocean. The IHFC explains that this comprehensive dataset is crucial for studying the Earth’s heat and contributes to our knowledge of geophysical processes.

Next-Generation Geothermal called the “dark horse” of the cleantech sector

Sabine Hossenfelder, in a recent episode of her YouTube series Science News, emphasized the merits of Next-Generation Geothermal technologies, specifically spotlighting Eavor as a solution that is “so modest, you wonder why it wasn’t done a century ago.” Hossenfelder elaborated on the method of harnessing energy from hot rock, stating that it seems like “the obvious thing to do” to mitigate the effects of climate change. She cited that geoscientists estimate that the energy reserves within the upper 10 km of the Earth’s crust are sufficient to meet the world’s energy needs for several hundred million years—equivalent to 1 million billion gigawatts of energy.
