Pioneering Energy Innovation: Exergy and PT PLN Indonesia Forge a Groundbreaking Partnership By: Robert Buluma In a world increasingly driven by the urgency of climate action, Exergy and PT PLN Indonesia have embarked on a visionary partnership that promises to redefine energy efficiency in the region. This collaboration, centered on the innovative use of waste heat recovery (WHR) technology, is not just another step in the evolution of sustainable energy—it’s a leap. Imagine harnessing the heat typically lost in power generation and converting it into something truly valuable: electricity. This is precisely what Exergy's state-of-the-art Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) systems are designed to do. By capturing waste heat from gas turbines and engines, these systems can transform what would have been wasted energy into a powerful resource, reducing the need for fossil fuels and cutting down on harmful emissions. But this partnership is about more than just technology—it's about the

Orkuveitan’s Ambitious Geothermal Drilling Project: Paving the Way for a Sustainable Future By :  Robert Buluma In a landmark move toward bolstering Iceland’s energy security and sustainability, Orkuveitan, the Reykjavik-based energy company, has launched a significant tender process for its latest geothermal drilling initiative. This project, which aims to drill 35 new exploratory and water extraction wells by the end of 2028, marks the largest water procurement venture in recent years. With its eyes set on a carbon-neutral future, Orkuveitan is taking a crucial step forward in ensuring the sustainability of the nation’s geothermal resources. The primary goal of this extensive drilling project is twofold: to secure long-term water supply for the nation’s heating needs and to explore new geothermal fields that hold potential for future development. The company’s approach to this project reflects a commitment to environmental stewardship, utilizing electric drilling rigs to minimize car

Sage Geosystems and Meta Unveil a Groundbreaking Geothermal Power Partnership: A New Era of Clean Energy Innovation By: Robert Buluma In an unprecedented move that promises to reshape the landscape of renewable energy in the United States, Sage Geosystems (Sage) and Meta Platforms, Inc. (Meta) have announced a pioneering agreement to harness the power of next-generation geothermal energy. This partnership, revealed at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Catalyzing Next Generation Geothermal Development Workshop, marks the first implementation of advanced geothermal power east of the Rocky Mountains—a milestone that could catalyze a seismic shift in how we meet our growing energy demands. The deal between Sage and Meta, which aims to deliver up to 150 MW of new geothermal baseload power to support Meta’s rapidly expanding data centers, is more than just a business agreement. It is a statement of intent, showcasing the critical role that clean, firm, and resilient power sources will pl
