Exergy Gemini Turbine vs Ormat Ormega100: Geothermal Binary Power Comparison

By Robert Buluma Alphaxioms
Exergy Gemini Turbine vs Ormat Ormega100: Two Different Paths to Geothermal Scale image : a thematic view of a geothermal turbine "blade" Geothermal power is entering a new phase. Two of the most important announcements in the sector point to larger, more standardized, and more commercially viable binary geothermal systems: Exergy’s Gemini Turbine and Ormat’s Ormega100 . At first glance, both machines promise major gains in scale, but they are not trying to solve the same problem in exactly the same way. Gemini is built around a high-capacity radial outflow turbine architecture that can deliver up to 60 MWe per shaft, while Ormega100 is designed as a 100 MW binary surface power unit intended to accelerate enhanced geothermal system commercialization. For project developers, utilities, and data-center buyers looking for firm clean power, the comparison matters because it reveals two competing ideas about how geothermal should grow. Exergy is emphasizing turbine architectur...

GA Drilling: Advanced Geothermal Drilling Technology, Deep Rock Innovation, and Clean Energy Financing

By Robert Buluma Alphaxioms
GA Drilling : Deep Drilling Technology, Financing, and Geothermal Scale-Up Image: A GA Drilling Bit GA Drilling is one of the more important technology companies in the geothermal sector because it is trying to solve a problem that has limited geothermal growth for decades: the cost, complexity, and risk of drilling deep wells in hard rock. Rather than operating a geothermal power plant itself, the company focuses on the drilling side of the value chain, developing technologies that can make deep geothermal wells faster, cheaper, and more reliable to build. That positioning gives it a different role from most geothermal developers, and it also makes it strategically significant for the future of clean baseload energy. The geothermal industry has always been constrained by subsurface uncertainty. Developers know where the heat is in a general sense, but they still must drill through high-temperature, abrasive, fractured, and often unpredictable rock to get there. In many projects, dril...

EGS Market Size and Investment Outlook

By Robert Buluma Alphaxioms
Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS) Market Size and Investment Outlook to 2034 Enhanced Geothermal Systems are at an inflection point. For years, EGS sat in the “promising but pre‑commercial” category of clean technologies, constrained by drilling cost, subsurface risk, and limited policy attention. That picture is now changing as next‑generation geothermal developers raise larger rounds, sign serious offtake agreements, and move projects from concept to execution.   At the same time, global demand for firm, low‑carbon power is rising faster than conventional geothermal can supply. Thermal plants are retiring, grids need 24/7 clean electricity, and policymakers are discovering that weather‑dependent renewables cannot carry the entire load alone. EGS is emerging as one of the few technologies capable of delivering baseload clean power using a resource available almost everywhere: deep, hot rock. Current EGS Market Size – Small but Strategic In absolute terms, the EGS market is s...

EU Tripartite Energy Storage Agreement, EGEC and QHeat Drive 30–35 GW Storage Deployment, Geothermal Energy Storage, Flexible Renewable Integration, and Clean Energy Investment Opportunities

By Robert Buluma Alphaxioms
The new EU tripartite agreement on energy storage, with EGEC and QHeat among the signatories, gives you a strong “systems-level” angle to layer onto your California geothermal piece by showing how firm clean power and storage are being coordinated on both sides of the Atlantic. Image : UK First Geothermal power plant at United Dawn's by Enel Green Coordinated Clean Firm Power, How California’s Geothermal Push and Europe’s Energy Storage Tripartite Are Rewriting the Rules of the Grid California’s decision to fund geothermal exploratory wells and the EU’s first‑ever tripartite agreement on energy storage are two sides of the same strategic coin, both designed to deliver secure, flexible, and affordable clean electricity. While California is targeting next‑generation geothermal to close its “clean firm gap,” Brussels is rallying 22 Member States, industry, banks, and innovators around a shared pledge to add 30–35 GW of new storage capacity in just two years.Together, these moves sh...

Tarragona Geothermal Energy Project: Renewable Heating Potential in Six Municipalities

By Robert Buluma Alphaxioms
Hidden geothermal energy under six Tarragona municipalities could power a new phase of the energy transition Image : A Geothermal Power Plant gushing steam to power a grid   A renewable resource beneath the ground A new study in Tarragona has revealed that geothermal energy could become a major local source of heat and cooling for six municipalities: Ascó, Mont-roig del Camp, Montbrió del Camp, Flix, Ulldemolins, and El Perelló . The research suggests that shallow geothermal systems could supply hundreds of buildings and public facilities with a steady, renewable, and locally available energy source . The idea is compelling because it combines climate action with territorial resilience. Instead of depending entirely on imported energy or weather-dependent renewables, these towns could tap into the stable temperature of the subsoil to produce heating, cooling, and domestic hot water . For a region that is already managing the transition away from nuclear dependence, this could ...

California Invests in Geothermal Exploratory Wells, Unlocking Next‑Generation Geothermal Growth, Clean Firm Power, and Investment Opportunities in California Geothermal Funding

By Robert Buluma Alphaxioms
California’s Big Bet on Next,Generation Geothermal, Why New State Funding Could Unlock Clean, Firm Power California just took an important step toward scaling next,generation geothermal energy. In the 2026 budget, Governor Gavin Newsom and the state legislature included targeted funds for geothermal exploratory wells and early,stage in,field programs, a move Clean Air Task Force (CATF) says is essential to overcoming the subsurface uncertainty that has slowed project deployment. This funding mirrors recommendations from CATF’s recent report, “Build Here: How Targeted State Investment in Geothermal Can Fill California’s Clean Firm Gap,” and could accelerate geothermal’s role as a reliable complement to wind, solar, and storage. Below I unpack why the new funding matters, how it addresses the industry’s biggest barriers, what the potential economic and grid benefits are, and where private capital, developers, and policymakers should focus next to turn this promise into projects. What Ca...

Colombia Grants El Barranquero Geothermal Exploration Permit, Advancing Policy, Investment, and Renewable Energy Growth

By Robert Buluma Alphaxioms
Colombia Grants Geothermal Exploration Permit to El Barranquero Project A New Signal for Colombia’s Geothermal Future Colombia has taken another decisive step in geothermal energy by granting an exploration permit for the El Barranquero project, a move that strengthens the country’s push to diversify its clean energy mix. The permit is more than a routine approval; it shows that geothermal is moving from policy ambition to practical development in a market that has long talked about its potential but struggled to unlock it.  The project sits between Samaná in Caldas and Nariño in Antioquia, placing it in one of the areas identified for geothermal development by Colombia’s geological authorities. That geographic detail matters because geothermal projects depend heavily on site quality, underground heat, and long-term regulatory certainty.  What the Permit Covers The Ministry of Mines and Energy granted the permit for five years, giving the developers time to carry out a full ex...

Eavor steps back from operator role in the Geretsried geothermal project

By Robert Buluma Alphaxioms
Eavor at the Crossroads: What Geretsried Really Tells Us About the Future of Closed-Loop Geothermal By Alphaxioms Geothermal Insights | May 13, 2026 For years, Eavor Technologies was the geothermal sector's most talked-about enigma. The company raised hundreds of millions of dollars, attracted backing from heavyweights including BP , Chevron , Helmerich & Payne , and Temasek , and made bold promises about a proprietary closed-loop technology that would quietly revolutionise how humanity extracts heat from the earth. But it rarely said much in public. The secrecy was, to many observers in the geothermal community, a feature rather than a bug — protecting intellectual property, managing competitive intelligence, buying time. Now, Eavor is talking. And what it is saying is worth listening to very carefully. In an exclusive interview published on May 13, 2026, by GeoExpro editor Henk Kombrink, Eavor's new president and CEO Mark Fitzgerald — who took the role in October 2025 ...
