XGS Raises $20 Million For US Geothermal Pilot Project

"Revolutionizing Energy: The Geothermal Breakthrough Shaking Up California"

By :Robert Buluma

In the sun-drenched landscapes of California, where solar panels gleam and wind turbines dance, a quiet revolution is underway, and it's not fueled by rays or gusts—it's powered by the Earth itself.

Meet  XGS Energy, a trailblazing geothermal technology company on the brink of changing the energy game as we know it. With a recent infusion of USD 20 million in funding, they're poised to unleash their groundbreaking Thermal Reach Enhancement (TRE) technology onto the world stage, starting with a pioneering project right here in the Golden State.

Imagine a future where clean, renewable energy flows effortlessly, not just when the sun shines or the wind blows, but around the clock, rain or shine. That's the promise of XGS' innovative approach, tapping into the Earth's natural heat reservoirs to deliver a consistent, carbon-free energy supply.

But this isn't your typical geothermal setup. XGS' system is a marvel of engineering, designed to overcome the hurdles that have held geothermal back from reaching its full potential. By harnessing the power of thermally conductive materials, they're able to unlock 24/7 energy independence without relying on vast amounts of water—a game-changer in a world where water scarcity is a growing concern.

Josh Prueher, XGS' visionary CEO, envisions a future where geothermal stands shoulder-to-shoulder with solar, wind, and battery storage, providing a reliable backbone for our increasingly electrified world. And with backers like Valo Ventures and VoLo Earth Ventures leading the charge, it's clear that the energy industry is taking notice.

But XGS isn't stopping at California. Their sights are set on a global scale, with projects slated for the Western US, Japan, and the Philippines. It's a testament to their ambition and their belief in the transformative power of geothermal energy.

So, as solar panels glisten in the California sun and wind turbines spin on the horizon, remember that beneath our feet lies a boundless source of clean, renewable energy, waiting to be tapped. Thanks to XGS Energy, the future of energy is looking brighter—and greener—than ever before.

Revolutionizing Renewable Energy: Texas Paves the Way for Closed-Loop Geothermal Innovation

Pioneering the Future of Geothermal Energy: Texas Leads the Way with Closed-Loop Systems By: Robert Buluma Vallourec's closed loop concept North of Houston, a transformative geothermal initiative is reshaping the energy sector. NOV, a key player in drilling and completions technology, has successfully completed an 11,500-foot closed-loop geothermal test well, marking a significant step forward in renewable energy development. This project highlights the growing potential of closed-loop geothermal (CLG) systems to redefine energy production. Ejen it comes to Geothermal,Innovation and Technology is key and we have seen alot of new findings lately. Unlocking New Possibilities in Geothermal Energy Unlike conventional geothermal systems that rely on naturally occurring underground water sources, CLG technology operates using a sealed system. A specialized heat transfer fluid circulates through a continuous loop, absorbing heat from deep underground rock formations and transporting it to...

Mercury, Contact Lead NZ's Supercritical Geothermal Energy Revolution

🌋 From the Ground Up: New Zealand’s Bold Leap into a Supercharged Geothermal Future By:  Robert Buluma In the heart of New Zealand, beneath the rugged volcanic landscapes and steaming geysers, lies an energy revolution waiting to erupt. On July 30th, 2025, a powerful message echoed from the geothermal capital of the Southern Hemisphere — New Zealand is not just embracing its geothermal potential; it is preparing to unleash it. With the unveiling of the draft strategy titled From the Ground Up , the government, led by Minister Shane Jones for Resources and Regional Development, signaled a transformative shift in how the nation will harness the heat beneath its feet — and it's as ambitious as it is inspiring. 🔥 A Legacy Forged in Steam New Zealand’s geothermal story is deeply rooted in its identity. Long before turbines spun and power grids buzzed, Māori ancestors were using geothermal waters for warmth, healing, and cooking. Geothermal, or waiwhatu , is more than a resource — ...
