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.

Next-generation geothermal energy scaling worldwide at an unprecedented rate

Geothermal energy has become one of the fastest-growing non-mainstream clean energy technologies in the world, according to S&P Global Commodity Insights. While conventional methods for harnessing geothermal power have been limited by geographical and geological constraints, next-generation technologies have innovated to unlock virtually unlimited potential. Over the past three years, the rise of start-up companies and substantial investments from major energy players underscores the rapid growth of next-gen geothermal. These advancements have raised over $630 million in funding and garnered support from leading global energy companies.

Eavor signs a geothermal action plan in the Netherlands

In an ongoing effort to develop clean and reliable energy for the Netherlands, Eavor has recently signed an action plan to accelerate geothermal energy in North Brabant. This initiative, driven by the province of North Brabant, the municipality of Helmond, and the Dutch government -owned  company EBN B.V., aims to accelerate geothermal energy production in the region. Initiatives outlined in the action plan will focus on areas such as addressing obstacles in the Ruhr Valley, enhancing geological data accuracy, mitigating financial risks, and optimizing existing heating networks for sustainability. Additionally, the plan includes research into the potential of shallow geothermal energy.
