Energy transition
More than a dozen companies have joined the advisory board of a new US Department of Energy center dedicated to expanding geothermal energy in the US.
The startup company’s Midland Basin demonstration plant, located in the Permian Basin, takes a major step toward commercialization by proving its direct lithium extraction technology can refine battery-grade lithium carbonate from produced water under multiple 24/7 production cycles.
The power-purchase agreement (PPA) marks largest enhanced geothermal PPA and is expected to accelerate the delivery of continuous, carbon-free power from the Cape Station GeoCluster in Utah.

The DOE-backed EGS-Twin project aims to simulate geothermal production systems, helping operators better predict performance and maximize output.
-
New geothermal technical content and programming will highlight knowledge transfer among oil and gas and geothermal professionals.

The challenge is to ensure that changes to major accident hazards are properly managed, whether the changes occur by adapting conventional industry operations to lower carbon or by introducing innovative technologies.
-
Winners of Alberta's Drilling Technology Challenge cover a range of technologies from robotics to enhance drilling rig safety to AI-enabled energy management, downhole sensing, well navigation, hybrid power systems, and geothermal energy.

The company’s millimeter wave drilling system is approaching a depth of 1 km at its Central Texas site. The recent funding is earmarked for Project Obsidian in Central Oregon, which Quaise calls the world’s first commercial superhot geothermal power plant.
-
This guest editorial addresses the need for high-temperature directional drilling technologies as the number of rigs used to develop next-generation geothermal wells is set to rise in the coming years.
-
This paper explores the development of direct-lithium-extraction technologies designed to recover lithium from unconventional feedstocks.
