A groundbreaking milestone has just been achieved in the geothermal world.  Quaise Energy a bold energy tech startup, is turning heads by drilling through granite—not with traditional bits, but with powerful millimeter-wave energy.  By :  Robert Buluma This disruptive technology could unlock near-unlimited geothermal power deep beneath the Earth’s surface. 💡 The Power Beneath Our Feet Beneath the Earth's crust lies a massive source of heat—superhot rock that, if harnessed, could power the planet many times over. The challenge? It's buried miles deep in unforgiving conditions where traditional drill bits melt, wear down, or fail completely. Enter  Quaise Energy revolutionary solution: vaporizing rock with directed energy. ⚙️ How It Works Instead of grinding rock with steel,  Quaise uses millimeter-wave energy—essentially high-powered microwaves. These waves are delivered through a special pipe to the rock face, where they instantly melt or vaporize hard mater...

Breaking New Ground: GA Drilling and NREL Join Forces to Revolutionize Geothermal Energy By: Robert Buluma Geothermal energy has long been the unsung hero of the renewable energy sector. With the potential to provide consistent, baseload power, it remains an underutilized resource due to the challenges of deep drilling. Now, GA Drilling, a pioneering geothermal technology company, has partnered with the U.S. National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) to take a massive leap forward in unlocking geothermal’s full potential. We did an indepth article earlier on Status of Geothermal in USA for our readers to get first hand information on how the geothermal sector looks like A Partnership for the Future GA Drilling and NREL are collaborating to bring a game-changing innovation to the field—an advanced high-temperature downhole generator designed to enhance geothermal drilling applications. This cutting-edge technology will be integrated into GA Drilling’s PLASMABIT® Hybrid drilling solutio...
