Below the Surface: How Baker Hughes is Drilling the 24/7 Clean Energy Solution By: Robert Buluma The geothermal era has arrived — and Baker Hughes is holding the drill. While much of the energy world remains fixated on LNG exports and offshore wind, a quieter revolution is taking place beneath our feet. Baker Hughes (BKR) , the Houston-based energy technology giant, has assembled what may be the most comprehensive geothermal partnership network in the industry — positioning itself as the go-to industrial executor for next-generation geothermal power. In 2026 alone, the company has locked in strategic collaborations spanning three continents, from the deserts of Saudi Arabia to the outback of Australia and the high-heat basins of the American West. The common thread? Baker Hughes is applying a century of oil and gas drilling expertise to unlock geothermal energy at industrial scale — and the data center boom is providing the perfect market catalyst. The Strategy: "G...
Alphaxioms, a global renewable energy company, recently acquired vast lands in Nakuru, Bahati, Naivasha, and Area A in Kenya for the purpose of geothermal power production. The acquisition marks a significant milestone for the company as it continues to expand its operations in Africa and pursue its goal of developing sustainable energy solutions. image source(Robert Buluma, C.E.O & Founder Alphaxioms) Geothermal energy is a reliable, renewable, and environmentally friendly source of energy that has gained popularity in recent years. Unlike other sources of renewable energy such as solar and wind, geothermal energy can provide baseload power that is available 24/7. It involves extracting heat from the earth's crust and converting it into electricity, making it a highly efficient and cost-effective energy source. The lands acquired by Alphaxioms are strategically located in areas with high geothermal potential. The company has already conducted resource assessments and other mea...
