MIT fusion tech to help vaporize rocks to harness deep Earth energy

Quaise Energy intends to dig deeper to the depths of 65,000 feet into Earth’s core, where temperatures reach 932 Fahrenheit, and the steam generated is similar to that required to operate turbines of a thermal power plant.Quaise Energy, a spin-off from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology , plans to vaporize rocks in the Earth’s core and tap into deep geothermal energy.

Since land is a limited resource with other applications such as agriculture, housing, industries, and maintaining forest cover that will help cool the planet, renewable energy projects are being moved offshore, increasing costs.projects, though, have the potential to generate large amounts of energy while utilizing less space. The technology relies on drilling into the Earth’s core. The deeper one goes, the higher the temperature that can be harnessed to generate power.

The problem, however, is that conventional drilling techniques do not let us go this far into the Earth’s core.To realize its goals, Quaise is using MIT’s extensive experience in developing lasers for nuclear fusion experiments and will repurpose them to drill through the rocks.
