Texas Geothermal Energy Alliance (TXGEA)

Mark your calendars for Thursday, August 8th at 10 am (central). Tune in for workshop #4 with TxGEA members and the Texas Railroad Commission staff as we discuss implementation of new geothermal legislation.

Geothermal energy can rapidly expand with support from Texas' oil and gas industry. Through innovation and collaboration, Texas can lead in making geothermal energy as cost-effective as solar and wind.

Texas is poised to lead the charge in geothermal energy! With our diverse array of natural resources, including geothermal, it's time for an all-of-the-above AND below energy policy. Let's harness the full spectrum of our energy potential for a sustainable future! www.TxGEA.org #geothermal #energy #geothermal power #Texas #txenergy #txlege #geothermalenergy #cleanenergy #sustainability #innovation

In the realm of renewables, geothermal shines as a firm, 'baseload' energy source. Its availability round the clock, without storage needs, sets it apart from intermittent options like solar and wind. Texas can lead by embracing geothermal for efficient, reliable energy solutions.

Hart Energy captures the excitement around geothermal energy in this fantastic story by Velda Addison. Great insight from Fervo Energy's Sarah Jewett. “It’s a common misconception that all this innovation needs to happen in order to bring geothermal power to market. But we have all of the technology we need. So, the only thing we have to do is build the projects and deliver to the market.” “Next-generation geothermal power is poised to become a key contributor to a secure domestic decarbonized power sector in the United States. This is an industry that is ready to grow to large scale,” said Charles Gertler, with U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). "It’s really adapting technology we have today, and not just technology but processes—bringing tried and true processes that have been developed over the years to scale the oil and gas industry into geothermal,” said Ajit Menon with Baker Hughes. Cindy D. Taff said, “In Sage’s view, the challenge is now the thermodynamics and geomechanics challenges of basically getting the heat out of the rock, getting it to the surface,” to cost-effectively turn heat into electricity, Taff said. “We’re looking at both the well design and the power plant design. We think both of them are crucial.” Special shoutouts to: Wells2Watts Geothermal Consortium, Baker Hughes, California Resources Corporation, Chesapeake Energy, Continental Resources, INPEX Corporation, GreenFire Energy Inc, Vallourec, Sage Geosystems Inc., Helmerich & Payne, Devon Energy, Clean Air Task Force, Eavor Technologies Inc., Chevron, Utah FORGE, Terra Rogers, Tim Latimer, and John Redfern.

Geothermal energy is the future of Texas! We need a comprehensive energy policy that includes our rich geothermal resources.

Thanks, ThinkGeoEnergy, this was a fun interview Kevin and I did during lunchbreak when we were teaching 40 enthusiastic future Geothermal engineers in Taiwan. 6 months later, my comments hold true and even more ground breaking Geothermal projects are spinning up. Mazama Energy in the US are pushing forward with groundbreaking technology in Oregon that could revolutionize Dry Super-Hot Rock.
