In my previous assessments of Hawaiʻi’s energy system, I examined specific infrastructure decisions such as proposed LNG imports and the role of legacy petroleum assets. Those analyses focused on timing, economics, and the risk of locking in fossil pathways that do not align with the state’s statutory commitment to 100% … [continued]
Energy Secretary Chris Wright is a big fan of geothermal energy, but he just got caught robbing Peter to pay Paul.
The first large-scale commercial enhanced geothermal system (EGS) power generator in the United States is under construction with the company reporting in our generator survey that it plans to bring the project online in June 2026. Below, we examine what enhanced geothermal systems are and how they differ from conventional geothermal systems. What is … [continued]
5 New Case Studies Add to Database of Geothermal Systems Installed Across the Nation By Becca Sweet, NLR The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Geothermal (OG) has published five new case studies on a variety of geothermal heating and cooling applications. These case studies, researched and written by the … [continued]
Das deutsche Wasserstoff-Backbone ohne Kunden oder Lieferanten — eine Pipeline von nirgendwo nach nirgendwo — ist realer Stahl im Boden, unter Druck gesetzt und als unvermeidlich verteidigt, doch sie wird für ein Energiesystem gebaut, das sie nicht braucht. Diese Aussage klingt provokant, bis die Energieflüsse vollständig offengelegt werden. Betrachtet man … [continued]
Ormat Technologies and Carbon Direct Capital co-lead Series B financing, which will support the development of Sage’s first next-generation geothermal power generation project. Sage Geosystems, the company pioneering Pressure Geothermal, closed over $97 million in Series B funding to advance its geothermal power generation and energy storage solutions, including its … [continued]
