Miles below the Earth's surface, there's a source of renewable energy that could sustain all of humanity for the foreseeable future. Just 0.1% of Earth's total heat content could meet our energy needs for 2 million years, according to ARPA-E, the government agency that funds R&D efforts for advanced energy technologies.
It's called geothermal energy, and in some ways, it's old news. It's been used to heat buildings since the late 1800s and provide electricity since the 1900s. The U.S. has the most installed geothermal capacity in the world, but it still only accounts for about 0.4% of our total electricity mix. That's because, in most places, it's too expensive and challenging to drill geothermal wells. That could change soon, though.
Over the last few years, a number of start-ups in the geothermal space have gained traction, such as Eavor Technologies, Fervo Energy, Sage Geoystems, and GreenFire Energy. While their technologies and approaches differ, all are trying to figure out how to access the "heat beneath our feet" in geographies that have traditionally been considered too difficult to reach.
Watch the video to learn more about these company's strategies, and why they're partnering with major oil and gas companies, like BP and Chevron, as the potential of geothermal energy grows.
Then we don’t have depopulate like bill gates wants?
geothermal: It is not RenewableEnergy. It is continuous, seemingly inexhaustible energy. The lights do not go off when it is dark and calm. tt:lizpeek berthacoombs
Stop it!!! You know it's whale killing wind and global heater solar power are the ONLY choices. STOP looking for the best solutions Democrats have paid for wind and solar already. Get in line loosers
We don't need to go deep into the earth to find renewable energy, the atmosphere is full of it and nikola Tesla proved this , just look up Nikola Tesla Free Energy, they had electric cars and Solar panels in the late 1800s but the greed for cash with oil hid all the information
Drill many holes in the Earth and transfer its heat causing the core to cool over time. What could go wrong with that? A cold solid core would definitely cure global warming or climate change or whatever the latest buzzword is.
And mine Bitcoin ❤️ 🌋 ✌️🙏
Não tenho nem dúvidas! 😅
Government would tax it.
There's only 1 or 2 fields that produce pure steam in the US. The rest produce hot water that has to be heated further to produce steam. Which means guess what? You need to burn something too.
Just another way to gouge the punters! Solar Wind & Battery Generate free power! Also Geothermal is not an endless renewable, can be exhausted, in the same way water aquifers are exhausted when overused.
There is no climate crisis. Open up the oil pipelines again.
This has been around for hundreds of years
i have to pay for bottled water, ice, cold/hot air, and now fire. say it aint so
GeothermalEnergy It is seemingly inexhaustible energy. The gratuitous adding of 'sustainable' to please activists shows weakness.
Bitcoin mining has entered the chat
or... you might end up siphoning off the heat of the core of the earth and stopping the dynamo that produces the magnet field which protects us all.
Nevada has geothermal plants.
What's the difference from pumping petroleum out of the earth? We'd still be puncturing the surface and removing contents from below, correct?
What could they possibly mess up tapping into the core of the earth basically
Another source of energy that we will ignore and continue use Oil ..coal and Nuclear sources . 🤔
elonmusk what are your thoughts on this? Could this compete with solar?
gtconway3d This gets revived every so often. Sounds like our ultimate goal. Awaiting the tech.
gtconway3d For those that don't have space/sun, this sounds good. The more options the better!
gtconway3d Shel Silverstein the Giving Planet…let’s suck ‘er dry!
What happens when we 'heat sink' too much energy geothermally... and please don't suggest it couldn't happen.
gtconway3d Yeaaahhhhh… there’s a doomsday cataclysmic science fiction movie plot that I’ve never heard before 😬
Save Krypton!
This is the beginning of the Gears of War storyline
🤡
gtconway3d Kinda like fracking, except without the dead dinosaurs part.
gtconway3d Iceland has been tapping into it for years.
Yeah, BulletinAtomic has been posting about this recently.
Where there's a will, there's ALWAYS a way!! Between the sun, wind and geothermal, we have more 'energy' we could ever need - IF we just get our political and business leaders to be, well, leaders! If not, we the people need to MAKE change happen!
Nuclear fracking
BS 😂
Just wanna take everything from earth
But we need to force Uyghur Muslims to build solar panels. We were told that’s the future of sustainable energy.
Escherspace1 Geothermal is how the future is powered, because it the only way to stop super volcanoes so might as well power earth-based civilization with the waste energy from our super-volcano domestication projects.
Sounds like you’re describing a science fiction movie.
Earth is going extinct?

Many things have potentials, the only problem is they are decades away to be significant
Nuclear is the way to go. That has been known for a long time.
It's amazing how easy it is to make such a big profit in such a short time crypto
Whenever you tamper with underground systems you sometimes get a negative and disruptive feedback. Solar and wind are at our fingertips. Use them! Nuclear is staring us in the face. If you can't use fusion, then use fission safely until technology allows for the use of fusion.
Don’t worry we will ruin the inside of the earth too
I saw that movie a couple weeks ago. Didn't they stall the core, but the Rock saved humanity. I'm pretty sure that's how it goes, but I napped during the movie. Your friend Pat 🥺
Why is this resource not being exploited why are the government's hell bound on fossil fules, destroying forest's, useing Cole and increasing global warming to the point of no return. Why because of a few old greedy farts and dumb idiots. Bitcoin is the new world currency.
Knowing how humans stuff up things they are likely to take out too much and blow up the planet.
What really surprises me, People will do what they can to keep something as a tourist attraction, But are blind to what they do to their Planet

Clean, yes, but not renevable. Unless you don't believe the third law of thermodynamics.
How exactly is it renewable?

Bullshit. This is absolute lies.

Finally! Can’t wait to finally be a self sustaining country
GOP : it would destroy the economy and kill the birds and give us windmill cancer or something.
Or could completely destroy our planet. Not to mention carbon release. Look at Mars for what happens when geothermal activity stops, don't hasten the timescale
Geothermal is indirect nuclear power.
Bitcoin is on its way to the desired region with the increase in the positive atmosphere in the global markets 49.3k zone above $48k zone bonus.I do not expect a daily close in the $49k in the short term. I’ve been taking 2dcoin tweets & TA seriously and I’ve been superb
elonmusk what are we doing about this!?
When has natural gas been so cheap? Big oil going to raise the price of free energy in the name of profit, so why even tell us in advance. Nothing will change because of the greed in a man's heart is not satisfied. As he passes his fellow man with evil in his heart.
In the 70s when I worked at Gulf Oil geothermal was discussed as an alternative energy. In all those years little progress was made now today the possibility is raising from the ashes. First commercial co. Should be named the Phoenix!!!!
Billions of light years above is also the Sun that sustains all life on the planet.
Geothermal. Fusion. Perfect solar power. Any of these three are game changers.
How many Celsius rising up by these earth nature? Global warming activists! You guys should protest on volcanoes next time! BTW. Some island countries will lose land from the sea, but some other countries will get new land for free from ocean volcano 🌋 that’s our Earth!
Awesome
Folks, before you believe the journalistic poof about geothermal fantasy, at least understand what the difficulties are. To believe otherwise is to fall victim to the fantasies of SenSanders or other false prophets.
horrible
Dogecoin solves this.
Might as well support nuclear power … same thing.
There is no greater joy than having financial stability and a life free of debts, that’s why I keep tweeting about lisamiaBTC it has been a pleasure collaborating with you...there is no other way I can show my appreciation other than tweeting the good deed you have done
I doubt the metaphor that 'we are in the 90s' of mobile' is very accurate, it's a bit dreamy to expect going to Home Depot or their EU equivalents and buying the do it your self geothermal power plant kit. 🤔
You should have highlighted nations like Kenya, that are doing amazing jobs in exploring Geothermal energy for power generation
nice
Nuclear would be way better
good luck
Zion rejoice!
Misinformation- there are limits to the amount of heat you can draw from earth
Love it
Jor-El thinks harvesting the core is a mistake.
And if you bring all this additional heat to the surface, what does that do to global warming?

What America needs is to downsize and simplify itself more. This in regards to energy usage, energy needs.
Million miles above the Earth’s surface, there’s a source of free renewable energy that could sustain all of humanity forever. Watch this video to learn how corporations exploit geothermal energy instead because they can't own the sun.
What a useless discussions! There so many ways to use cleaner energy! Please stop the Star Trek plans!
Sounds like the aim is further monopoly on energy. That’s why it is not taking off.
Unstable?
King Kong is down there, and dinosaurs. Hollywood told me.

Draining heat from the earths core is a terrible idea. Did you no watch that movie “Man of Steel”?
Hey everyone skys destroyed lets dig down and fuck that up too

Just Google Fox News hannity Trump blasts biden's Afghanistan disaster. I don't see anybody's tweeted that one yet hot off the presses. Tells you exactly what Biden has done and not done don't be afraid to make up your own mind be the first to see the news
The Communist Democratic Party will be against it.
Nothing bad could happen right? 🤷♂️
Will require tons of funding that will have to produce revenue or it will never scale.
Leave it alone. Always messing with stuff

Massively stupid idea
this is terrible news
Iceland has abd uses it already
Have the scientists ever thought of the consequence of cooling temperature of the earth core could creat earth structure shrinking?..
have you just discovered the geothermal energy?
Drill to the Core? 😂
ohno we need water preservation not water expenditure
Another of source ofenergy to exploit. Going to have oil rigs digging to the center of our planet 🌎 yikes 😳

Please, please, please, just leave the earth alone. There actions (greed)could have serious repercussions on the entire planet.
thanks
Our planet is so fragile any poking to the earth can cause devastation effect for human life. The sun has plenty of energy that we’ll ever need. We need to tap it to the fullest, harvesting energy above the clouds.

Meanwhile....fossil fuels are at the surface for pennies. Piss your money away, but keep it off mine GD!
There' no malicious, heinous or grievous act some judge can't be dug up to support.
Have you guys at FullyChargedShw looked at Geothermal? I just watched this CNBC episode on geothermal. They say: - it could be a source of base load electricity (operates 24/7 365 days / year) - oil majors could transfer their drilling skills - new tech could bring down costs
This isn't the first time they have.
Not everywhere
