Ethiopia Renegotiates Key Deals to Restart Multimillion‑Dollar Geothermal Projects: Tulu Moye and Corbetti Move Toward Restart After years of security disruptions, financing shortfalls and contract disputes, two of Ethiopia’s highest‑profile geothermal concessions , the Tulu Moye (Meridiam/Reykjavik Geothermal) and Corbetti projects , are actively renegotiating with senior government authorities to resume development. The talks mark a practical pivot from litigation and prolonged suspension toward restarting drilling and project implementation, with implications for Ethiopia’s energy mix, investor confidence and the regional geothermal supply chain. Why these renegotiations matter For an emerging geothermal market like Ethiopia, the fate of Tulu Moye and Corbetti matters on three fronts: capacity and grid impact, investor signaling, and the country’s ability to mobilize large, foreign‑led project finance. Each project alone represents several hundred megawatts of potential dispatchable...
In a world increasingly focused on sustainable energy solutions, Eavor Technologies has emerged as a trailblazer, redefining the geothermal energy sector with its revolutionary technology. By: Robert Buluma The Calgary-based company has developed a unique closed-loop geothermal system, aptly named the Eavor-Loop™, which promises to deliver clean, reliable, and scalable energy without the limitations of traditional geothermal methods. This innovation is not just a scientific breakthrough; it’s a financial and environmental game-changer that has captured the attention of investors, governments, and energy experts worldwide. The Eavor-Loop™: A Geothermal Marvel Traditional geothermal energy relies on finding naturally occurring reservoirs of hot water or steam underground, which limits its applicability to specific geographic regions. Eavor’s technology, however, eliminates this constraint by creating an artificial geothermal reservoir. The Eavor-...
