The energy industry is in the midst of a transformation. The old adage of the energy transition is seeing a wash of terms associated with clean energy production parallel to public disclosures of new climate goals. While a small number of new energy technologies are being developed around the world, the goal is the total decarbonization of the electricity sector. To accomplish this, there is an outlying requirement that is in favour of a very select few technologies, with advanced geothermal technology being a primary candidate.

Advisory board chair for Eavor Jesse Jenkins and fellow ZERO Lab team members Qingyu Xu, Aneesha Manocha, and Neha Patankar published a report in conjunction with Princeton University and grant support from Google Inc. on System-level Impacts of 24/7 Carbon-free Electricity Procurement. The report was published on November 16th, 2021.

The UK Parliament recently published a study on Geothermal Energy. The study provides a broad overview of where the UK views the potential for geothermal, in light of advancements in technology.

Locally produced electricity provides an abundance of benefits to a nation and its people. Furthermore, nations around the world can produce local carbon-free energy, supporting their efforts to reduce the amount of carbon they emit into the atmosphere.

Permits have been received for Eavor Technologies(www.eavor.com) to proceed with the Geretsried geothermal plant. A recent article by Süddeutsche Zeitung reports that city councilors have approved the planning permit for the new approach to the geothermal project in Geretsried, Bavaria in Germany.
