Geothermal Energy

Advanced Geothermal Systems: Presenting Eavor’s ‘closed-loop’​ technology. Could this approach reach the ‘holy-grail’​ status for clean-energy?

On the revolutionary end of the spectrum of technologies for extracting heat from the ground are closed-loop geothermal systems, also called Advanced Geothermal Systems or AGS. In AGS instead of drilling for water, or creating an artificial reservoir through stimulation, which is the case for EGS (Enhanced/Engineered Geothermal Systems), either a single circular loop, or …

Super-hot-rock geothermal: Potentially cheap baseload power, available almost anywhere.

In essence, “super-hot rock” geothermal, is the type of geothermal energy production that seeks to tap into extremely deep, extremely hot rock. It can be said also that it is a form of EGS (Enhanced/Engineered-Geothermal-Systems). 1. How does super-hot-rock geothermal work? In a super-hot-rock system, water is injected deep into hot fractured rock, heated, and …
