Most green technologies gather energy above ground, but like Jules
Verne, we want to take you on A
Journey to the Center of the Earth. Alright, not even close to the
center, but deep down nonetheless, where naturally occurring hot water
can be turned into clean energy above ground.
It is estimated that the amount of heat within 30,000 feet below the earth’s surface holds potentially 50,000 times more energy than all global oil and natural gas resources combined. According to the Geothermal Energy Association, up to 6,400 megawatts of new capacity could be created from the geothermal projects under development in the U.S. But getting to that energy is proving to be a challenge.
