Baker Hughes & Mantle Reach Power Target 500 MW Geothermal Across North America

How Baker Hughes and Mantle Reach Power are trying to make geothermal financeable, scalable, and grid-ready across North America By:  Robert Buluma On 24 June 2026 Baker Hughes and  Mantle Reach Power (backed by EnCap Energy Transition Fund III) announced a strategic commercial agreement to accelerate large-scale geothermal deployment across North America, targeting up to 500 megawatts (MW) of installed capacity over the next five years. The partnership frames Baker Hughes as an integrated subsurface solution provider, with Mantle Reach Power leading project development, ownership and financing. For energy professionals and investors, the announcement is important because it attempts to address the perennial stumbling blocks for geothermal — high upfront subsurface risk, limited developer and investor scale, and fragile project bankability — by combining deep-pocketed development capital, established drilling and subsurface technology, and a repeatable commercial structur...

Green Therma Geothermal: Fifth-Generation Closed-Loop Technology for Europe’s Clean Heat Future

Green Therma and the Future of Geothermal Scale in Europe By: Robert Buluma Geothermal energy has long been one of the most intriguing renewable resources in the global clean energy mix. It is steady, local, and available around the clock, unlike solar and wind, which depend on weather and daylight. Yet despite these advantages, geothermal has often remained a niche part of the energy landscape. The reason is not a lack of potential, but a combination of technical complexity, high upfront drilling costs, site-specific geology, and the challenge of scaling projects in a repeatable way. That is why companies promising a new generation of geothermal systems tend to attract attention. Green Therma is one of those companies. Its message is bold: geothermal technology for scale, potentially up to 25,000 wells in Europe. That is a major claim, and it deserves careful attention. If such a model works, it could change how Europe thinks about district heating, industrial heat, and energy securi...

Enhanced Geothermal Systems Financing Hurdles

The Heat Beneath: Why Enhanced Geothermal Systems Can't Get Financing—And What It Will Take to Change That By : Robert Buluma Introduction: The Paradox of Boundless Energy Beneath our feet lies an energy source so vast that capturing just a fraction of it could power civilization for millennia. More than five terawatts of heat resources exist beneath the United States alone—enough to meet the electricity needs of the entire world. Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS), which circulate water through engineered fractures in deep hot rock, promise to unlock this resource nearly anywhere on the planet, not just in volcanic hotspots. The technology is improving faster than almost anyone expected. Costs are falling. The fossil fuel industry's drilling expertise is being repurposed. And yet, for all its promise, EGS remains stuck in a financial no-man's-land—too big for venture capital, too risky for traditional lenders, and too unfamiliar for the infrastructure investors who could tr...

Armstrong International Launches Geothermal Industrial Heat Pump Production Site in Herstal, Belgium

How Geothermal Power Is Rewiring Industrial Heat in Herstal By: Robert Buluma In Herstal, Belgium, a quiet but consequential shift is taking shape. Armstrong International , a company long known for thermal utility solutions, is building a new production site for high-temperature industrial heat pumps that will itself be powered by an innovative closed-loop geothermal system. Named CircularSteam1, the project combines manufacturing, geothermal energy, and circular thermal thinking on a former mining site. When it opens in 2027, the plant aims to produce roughly 100 industrial heat pumps per year, each delivering up to 1 MW and able to raise temperatures to 120°C — high enough to serve many industrial processes previously dependent on fossil-fuel boilers. Why geothermal matters for industrial heat Geothermal energy is often associated with large-scale electricity generation or the warm springs that draw tourists. But its quiet power as a stable, local supply of low-grade heat makes it a...

Birch Geothermal: The Startup Reinventing Clean Baseload Power

Birch Geothermal and the Quiet Reinvention of Clean Power By: Robert Buluma For decades, geothermal energy has been the clean energy world’s most underappreciated asset: always on, deeply reliable, and technically proven, yet still too often treated as a niche technology. Birch Geothermal wants to change that. The company is part of a new generation of geothermal developers betting that better subsurface engineering, smarter data, and oilfield-style execution can turn geothermal from a geological curiosity into a mainstream source of firm clean power  That ambition matters because the electricity system is changing fast. Grids now need more than low-carbon generation; they need power that can run at any hour, follow demand, and support a world increasingly shaped by electrification, data centers, and industrial load growth . Birch’s thesis is simple but bold: if geothermal is engineered better, it can become one of the cleanest and most dependable tools in the energy transition ....

"Syntholene Completes Iceland Geothermal Synthetic Fuel Facility Ahead of Schedule"

Syntholene’s Iceland Demonstration Facility Signals Real Progress, but Commercial Proof Still Lies Ahead By:  Robert Buluma Syntholene’s announcement that it has completed construction of its Iceland demonstration facility ahead of schedule and commenced operations is an encouraging milestone for investors tracking the company’s development trajectory . In a sector where delays, cost overruns, and technical setbacks are common, early delivery can materially improve confidence in management execution and project discipline . The update does not remove the risks associated with synthetic fuel development, but it does suggest the company is moving from concept validation into operational testing, which is an important threshold for any early-stage industrial energy business . At a high level, the announcement matters because it changes Syntholene’s story from one of planning to one of implementation. The company had previously indicated that first operations could begin as soon as Jun...
