Provisional assessment shows potential for 135 gigawatts of baseload power – if current technology works at scale in Nevada and 5 adjoining states. The projected 10 percent would be a major increase, as geothermal energy currently generates less than 1 percent of the nation’s power supply. The new assessment, which updates a 2008 USGS assessment, depends on widespread ...
Dandelion Energy, a leading home geothermal heating and cooling company, this week announced they are partnering with Lennar Corporation, one of the nation’s leading homebuilders, on one of the most significant residential geothermal heat pump deployments in US history. Over the next two years, Dandelion’s innovative geothermal systems will be integrated into over 1,500 new Lennar ...
With global electricity demand set to grow strongly, new technologies are opening up the massive potential of geothermal energy to provide around-the-clock clean power in almost all countries around the world, according to a new IEA report.The report, The Future of Geothermal Energy, finds that geothermal energy could meet 15% of global electricity demand growth between now and 2050 if project ...
Consumers Energy has received approval from the Michigan Public Service Commission to conduct a feasibility study about the potential implementation of a network geothermal system in areas where the company serves as both electric and natural gas provider. The effort will reduce heating costs for vulnerable customers while also lowering emissions in neighborhoods with historically low air ...
ABB and Sage Geosystems (Sage), a leading geothermal baseload and energy storage company, have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) agreement to collaborate on developing energy storage and geothermal power generation facilities that utilize natural heat from the earth’s core to produce clean electricity. The collaboration will allow ABB to support Sage’s agreement with Meta, ...
These pilot projects will leverage the latest grid-edge solutions—like energy efficiency, demand-responsive building systems, energy storage, EV smart charging, and advanced grid-planning strategies—to equip communities and utilities with the tools and data they need to confidently manage our evolving electric grid." ...
The U.S. Department of Energy’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), in coordination with the U.S. Departments of the Interior, Agriculture, and Defense, this week released a study showing that there is significant potential for further expanding renewable energy production on federal lands. The most comprehensive study of its kind finds that onshore federal lands in the contiguous United ...
