NASEO Launches Multistate Geothermal Power Accelerator: A Major Step Toward Clean, Reliable Energy By:  Robert Buluma In a significant boost for America's clean energy future, the National Association of State Energy Officials (NASEO) announced on December 18, 2025, the launch of the NASEO Geothermal Power Accelerator. This collaborative initiative brings together 13 states to fast-track the development of geothermal power in partnership with the private sector. Funded by the U.S. Department of Energy’s Geothermal Technologies Office and NASEO itself, the Accelerator aims to unlock the vast potential of geothermal energy a reliable, firm, and flexible source of clean power available around the clock. The participating states are Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Idaho, Louisiana, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Utah, and West Virginia. These diverse regions, spanning traditional geothermal hotspots in the West to emerging opportunities in the East, will wo...

🌋 Global Geothermal Policy Takes Center Stage: IGA and Giving Green Forge a New Path for Clean, Firm Energy By:  Robert Buluma In a powerful step toward transforming the future of clean energy, the  International Geothermal Association (IGA) has partnered with  Giving Green to accelerate global geothermal policy and regulation. This collaboration marks a turning point for the geothermal sector — one that could redefine how nations approach firm, renewable power in the era of climate urgency. Policy Reform Meets Energy Innovation Backed by Giving Green’s strategic grant, the IGA will host two high-impact Policy & Regulation Fora in Europe — specialized “acceleration labs” that bring together governments, regulators, and industry players to tackle the barriers throttling geothermal progress. From lengthy permitting delays to inconsistent policy frameworks, these challenges have slowed one of the most reliable forms of renewable energy. The fora will focus on creating...
