Eavor Goes Deeper in Geretesried In Search For Geothermal

Revolutionizing Energy Production: The Birth of Eavor Technology in Geretesried

By:Robert Buluma

In the picturesque town of Geretesried, nestled in the heart of Germany, a groundbreaking project is underway that promises to reshape the future of energy production as we know it. Welcome to the world of Eavor Technology – where innovation meets sustainability in a bid to tackle the pressing challenges of climate change and energy security.

Imagine a technology that harnesses the Earth's natural heat to generate both electricity and warmth without emitting harmful greenhouse gases. Sounds like science fiction? Well, it's not. Thanks to the relentless efforts of visionaries and engineers, the world's first Eavor loop for heat and electricity is currently under construction right here in Geretesried.

At the forefront of this remarkable endeavor is the ambitious drilling project that has reached an astonishing depth of 7000 meters beneath the Earth's surface. Achieving such depths wasn't merely a stroke of luck; it was a feat accomplished through precision engineering, meticulous planning, and cutting-edge drilling techniques. Every step of the way, the team at Geretesried has relied on advanced measurement tools to ensure accuracy and efficiency in their operations.

But the innovation doesn't stop there. Surface activities are rapidly progressing, with the power plant beginning to take shape. It's a sight to behold as the physical manifestation of years of research and development starts to emerge from the ground. The integration of renewable energy sources with traditional infrastructure marks a significant milestone in the journey towards a sustainable future.

What sets Eavor Technology apart is its ability to provide a reliable and continuous supply of clean energy, regardless of external factors such as weather or geographical location. Unlike solar or wind power, which are intermittent by nature, Eavor's closed-loop system operates 24/7, offering a stable and consistent source of electricity and heat.

But perhaps the most captivating aspect of Eavor Technology is its potential to revolutionize the global energy landscape. With climate change looming large and fossil fuel reserves dwindling, the need for sustainable alternatives has never been more urgent. Projects like the one in Geretesried serve as a beacon of hope, demonstrating that innovation and environmental stewardship can go hand in hand.

Driving the UK Toward Net Zero: Chris Sladen on Geothermal’s Untapped Potential

Alphaxioms, we talked to Chris Sladen about his involvement in geothermal both in the UK, and globally By:  Robert Buluma Chris, please begin by explaining a little about yourself, and why you have a passion for geothermal? I have spent over 45 years involved in energy. Following undergraduate studies in geology at Southampton University, and a PhD in sedimentology at Reading University, I joined the energy sector in Aberdeen in 1980. It was a fascinating era when it seemed like at least one giant oil & gas field was discovered offshore every month; the wealth creation for the UK was gigantic. I got to see so much geology and rocks - my true passion. I moved to China in late 1983; not today’s China, this was over 40 years ago, a country closed for decades and embarking on an open-door policy, in part to bring both investment and technology. I became very interested in energy trends, energy politics, and new geography created by changing politics leading to opportunities for ene...

Kenya’s Energy Crossroads: Gulf Energy Takes Over Tullow Oil in Turkana’s Geothermal-Rich Fields

Gulf Energy  Takes Over Tullow Oil’s Turkana Fields – Oil Drilling to Overlap a Geothermal Hotspot By:  Robert Buluma In a landmark energy shift for Kenya, British explorer Tullow Oil  has officially exited the country after 14 years , selling its Turkana operations to Gulf Energy  in a deal worth Ksh.16 billion (USD 120 million). The transition marks the end of  Tullow's chapter in Kenya and the beginning of a new phase that could reshape not only oil production but geothermal exploration as well. The takeover grants  Gulf Energy full control of the Turkana oil project , situated in a geologically active zone that also happens to host significant geothermal potential. Beneath Turkana’s arid landscapes, volcanic systems create natural heat reservoirs turning the region into a rare frontier where oil and geothermal energy converge. Tullow Oil  first entered Kenya in 2010, striking the Ngamia-1 discovery well in 2012, which ignited hopes of the countr...

Unlocking Geothermal Power: Subsurface Secrets of Mount Erciyes Revealed”

Mount Erciyes: A Hidden Geothermal Treasure Beneath Cappadocia By: Robert Buluma Beneath the snow-capped slopes of Mount Erciyes , central Turkey’s highest peak, lies more than just volcanic history  it harbors the promise of geothermal energy . A new study published in the Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research has mapped the subsurface of Erciyes using three-dimensional magnetotelluric (MT) imaging , revealing zones of high electrical conductivity that point to heat, fluids, and possible magma bodies deep underground. Cracking the Code Beneath the Mountain Researchers led by S.B. Tank used advanced MT techniques to peer beneath Erciyes and its surroundings. Their results uncovered conductivity anomalies   regions where electricity flows more easily due to the presence of saline fluids, hot water, or partially molten rock . For geothermal experts, these anomalies are gold. They act as subsurface fingerprints of geothermal reservoirs , highlighting where heat ...
