Geothermal Project News Today

ONGC is gearing up for a fresh geothermal drilling campaign in Ladakh, aiming to tap into emission-free energy sources. The project could provide electricity, heating, and irrigation in Ladakhs harsh terrains. Planned drilling in June aims to complete two 1,000-meter wells by September. If successful, a 1 MW power plant could be operational by next year. Iceland, a geothermal energy leader, is advising ONGC. Overcoming past setbacks, including water control and logistics, is key, with advanced e...

An advanced geothermal project has begun pumping carbon-free electricity onto the Nevada grid to power Google data centers there, Google announced Tuesday. Getting electrons onto the grid for the first time is a milestone many new energy companies never reach, said Tim Latimer, CEO and co-founder of Google's geothermal partner in the project, Houston-based Fervo Energy. “I think it will be big and it will continue to vault geothermal into a lot more prominence than it has been,&#x2...

Google announced Tuesday that an advanced geothermal project has begun pumping carbon-free electricity onto the Nevada electric grid to feed Google data centers there. Google and Houston-based Fervo Energy partnered to develop next-generation geothermal power that runs 24 hours a day. Fervo says getting electrons onto the grid for the first time is a milestone many new energy companies never reach. The International Energy Agency has long projected geothermal could be a serious solution to clima
