"US Geothermal Tax Credits 2026: What the IRA/45Q Changes Mean for Developers"

US Geothermal Tax Credits in 2026: What Is Actually Still Alive After OBBBA For an industry that spent more than a decade building financial models around a stable federal incentive structure, 2026 has been a year of whiplash. The 30% federal geothermal tax credit that developers and homeowners built forecasts around is gone in one form and still alive in another, and even the IRS’s own public guidance has been confusing enough to trigger uncertainty across the market. That confusion is not a minor clerical issue. It is shaping investment decisions, contractor sales pitches, homeowner timelines, and project finance assumptions right now. If you work in geothermal, the key question is no longer whether federal incentives exist, but which incentive applies, to which project type, and under what ownership structure. The law that changed the timeline To understand where things stand in 2026, you have to start with the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, which created a long runway for clean e...

Green Therma Selects H&P to Drill Denmark’s Longest Geothermal Well

Green Therma Selects H&P to Drill Denmark’s Longest Geothermal Well for Aalborg Heat4Ever Demonstration Denmark is moving from geothermal ambition to execution. Green Therma has selected Helmerich & Payne to drill the Heat4Ever demonstration well near Aalborg, a project that could become one of the country’s most technically ambitious geothermal developments and a meaningful test of closed-loop district heating.   A milestone for Danish geothermal The Aalborg Heat4Ever project matters because it is designed to prove that geothermal heat can be delivered without relying on a natural hot-water reservoir. Instead of producing groundwater from a conventional geothermal field, the system uses a closed-loop pipe-in-pipe design that circulates the same fluid downhole, heats it in contact with hot rock, and returns it to the surface for district heating use.  That distinction is important for Denmark, where district heating is already a major part of the energy system ...

NYC Subway Thermal Energy Network Pilot: Geothermal Heat Capture, Radiant Cooling, Seasonal Storage

New York’s Subway Heat Turned into Winter Warmth: The City’s First Transit Thermal Energy Network Pilot Turning platform heat into usable energy — what the Chambers Street and Brooklyn Bridge–City Hall pilot means for urban energy systems New York City has launched a study to design and test a Thermal Energy Network (TEN) that would capture excess heat from two of Lower Manhattan’s hottest subway stations and reuse it to heat nearby municipal buildings. The proposed pilot, centered on the Brooklyn Bridge–City Hall 4/5/6 complex and the Chambers Street J/Z station, is notable for being the first time TENs are being considered inside a U.S. transit system. The plan pairs radiant cooling on platforms with geothermal borehole storage under an abandoned center platform at Chambers Street, converting otherwise wasted heat into a supply that can be stored seasonally and delivered to surrounding municipal facilities during colder months. This initiative sits at the intersection of urban heat r...
