The Resources and Regional Development Minister will be trying to convince iwi of the benefits of tapping geothermal energy under Māori-owned land, when he meets with around 40 iwi groups at a hui in Rotorua on Friday. Māori News journalist Pokere Paewai has this report.

A Kawerau paper mill has found a new power source as New Zealand struggles with a looming winter power crunch. A newly released briefing to the Minister shows electricity supply is tight, and gas supply needs to be maintained until suitable alternatives are found. Essity's Kawerau Paper Mill has become the first in the world to create a machine that runs entirely on geothermal steam. Essity General Manager Mark Stevens told Kerre Woodham that the main area of benefit is sustainability – with the mill producing the same amount of paper with 66% less carbon output.

NTU researchers have uncovered evidence of a new high-potential geothermal energy site in Yishun. Leveraging advanced seismic imaging techniques to explore underground heat potential in northern Singapore, the team found a geothermal reservoir, sitting above a depth of around 4km. This comes on the back of Singapore’s ambition to develop green energy resources to meet growing electricity demands and achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. In the next phase of their study, researchers will be burying another 80 seismic sensors underground, spanning the north-east and south of Singapore. On this episode of Morning Shot, NTU's Associate Professor Tong Ping from the School of Physical & Mathematical Sciences, Asian School of the Environment, and Principal Investigator at the Earth Observatory of Singapore shares his insights.

“When we think about sustainable living, it's not just about electricity. Energy encompasses more than electricity. As we advocate for sustainability and net zero, let's not forget the heating and cooling of our homes, businesses, and industries - geothermal is a direct resource for that.” Dr. Marit Brommer on Electric Ladies Podcast Drilling for geothermal energy - the heat beneath our feet - promises to be one of the most sustainable sources of energy and a game changer for the clean energy transition. One of the biggest opportunities lies right here in the U.S., where we have the largest installed capacity for geothermal electricity generation. Reflecting the tremendous potential of this energy source, $31 million in funding was announced for geothermal energy projects in late-2024, subject to evolving federal funding guidelines.  Listen to Dr. Marit Brommer, CEO of the International Geothermal Association (IGA) and a geologist and expert in geothermal energy. Prior to joining the IGA, she was an exploration and production technologist at Shell and Total Energy.   You'll hear about: What geothermal energy is, its applications, and its potential to be a significant player in the transition to a net-zero emissions economy.  Role of the International Geothermal Association in guiding the proper management of geothermal energy projects.  Effective policies to support geothermal development are essential to overcome the initial financial and technical risks.  Why the connection between geothermal energy and lithium production is an interesting proposition for the sector.  Plus, career advice about claiming your space.  "Get your voice heard, claim your seat at that table and understand that you don't take no for an answer. No man has ever asked me how to land his next job, get to the next career point, or do something professionally - but women do.   “The point is, we women are ultimately raised to be nice. There's nothing wrong with being nice, but in your professional life, it's equally important to stand up, know your worth, not shy away from that, claim your seat, prepare, and network.” Dr. Marit Brommer on Electric Ladies Podcast Read Joan's Forbes piece on New IRA Funding Available For Geothermal Energy - Learning From Iceland and more articles here.  You'll also like:  Jennifer Granholm, 16th U.S. Secretary of Energy, on how the clean energy transition is driving record-breaking economic growth across the country.

Geothermal energy has been utilized by humans for millennia. While the first-ever use may be a mystery, we do know the Romans tapped into it in the first century for hot baths at Aquae Sulis (modern-day Bath, England). Since then, many other people and cultures have found ways to use the Earth's underground heat to their benefit. Geothermal resources were used for district heating in France as far back as 1332. In 1904, Larderello, Italy, was home to the world's first experiment in geothermal electricity generation, when five lightbulbs were lit. By 1913, the first commercial geothermal power plant was built there, which expanded to power the local railway system and nearby villages. However, one perhaps lesser-known geothermal concept revolves around energy storage. “It's very much like pumped-storage hydropower, where you pump a lake up a mountain, but instead of going up a mountain, we're putting that lake deep in the earth,” Cindy Taff, CEO of Sage Geosystems, explained as a guest on The POWER Podcast. Sage Geosystems' technology utilizes knowledge gleaned from the oil and gas industry, where Taff spent more than 35 years as a Shell employee. “What we do is we drill a well. We're targeting a very low-permeability formation, which is the opposite of what oil and gas is looking for, and quite frankly, it's the opposite of what most geothermal technologies are looking for. That low permeability then allows you to place a fracture in that formation, and then operate that fracture like a balloon or like your lungs,” Taff explained. “When the demand is low, we use electricity to power an electric pump. We pump water into the fracture. We balloon that fracture open and store the water under pressure until a time of day that power demand peaks. Then, you open a valve at surface. That fracture is naturally going to close. It drives the water to surface. You put it through a Pelton turbine, which looks like a kid's pinwheel. You spin the turbine, which spins the generator, and you generate electricity.” Unlike more traditional geothermal power generation systems that use hot water or steam extracted from underground geothermal reservoirs, Sage's design uses what's known as hot dry rock technology. To reach hot dry rock, drillers may have to go deeper to find desired formations, but these formations are much more common and less difficult to identify, which greatly reduces exploration risks. Taff said traditional geothermal energy developers face difficulties because they need to find three things underground: heat, water, and high-permeability formations. “The challenge is the exploration risk, or in other words, finding the resource where you've got the heat, the large body of water deep in the earth, as well as the permeability,” she said. “In hot dry rock geothermal, which is what we're targeting, you're looking only for that heat. We want a low-permeability formation, but again, that's very prevalent.” Sage is now in the process of commissioning its first commercial energy storage project in Texas. “We're testing the piping, and we're function testing the generator and the Pelton turbine, so we'll be operating that facility here in the next few weeks,” Taff said. Meanwhile, the company has also signed an agreement with the California Resources Corporation to establish a collaborative framework for pursuing commercial projects and joint funding opportunities related to subsurface energy storage and geothermal power generation in California. It also has ongoing district heating projects in Lithuania and Romania, and Taff said the U.S. Department of Defense has shown a lot of interest in the company's geothermal technology. Additionally, Meta signed a contract for a 150-MW geothermal power generation system to supply one of its data centers.

AI can now sell your intentions – marketing your decisions before you make them Machine learning is on the verge of commercialising your decisions even before you make them. New research shows that we are moving away from an attention economy to an intention economy as machine learning models, which can already imitate the way we write or talk, can now map previous activity onto future actions. Writing in the Harvard Data Science Review, Dr Yaqub Chaudhary, visiting scholar at the Leverhulme Centre for the Future of Intelligence, and Dr Jonnie Penn of the University of Cambridge ask if AI predicting our intentions could be misused against us.   Geothermal Energy without the digging Geothermal energy is going drill-free, using already available underground spaces, like car parks. Reporter Jez Donaldson met Margaux Peltier, Co-founder and CEO of Enerdrape, at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. The company uses pre-cooled or pre-heated geothermal panels in walls, which capture heat from the surrounding concrete or the ground itself, making this energy renewable as no new heat is created. This is then redistributed around the building using a heat pump.  The programme is presented by Gareth Mitchell and the studio expert is Ghislaine Boddington.

In this episode, I'm joined by Alexander Richter, a seasoned expert in geothermal energy with over 18 years of experience. For anyone curious about career paths in renewable energy or intrigued by geothermal's role in decarbonization, this conversation is packed with valuable perspectives and practical advice. Alexander's journey from law to geothermal business development is a lesson in adaptability and impact.Key Takeaways:

The Earth's heat produced from radioactive decay in the core has many benefits once recovered and brought to the surface. Most focus is placed on its ability to provide baseload power, which is important, but arguably the most widespread use case being heating and cooling gets overlooked. Geothermal is ubiquitous throughout the planet, however, it does vary by location the feasibility of extracting the resource, but harvesting low temperature resources can be done most anywhere. Once harvested, the use cases are seemingly endless, heat and cool your home, office building, school, grow vegetables, process dairy, aquaculture, and so much more.

“Carbon Recycling International was founded around the idea of taking something which was waste, like CO2 and turning it into some valuable product…(Today they are) converting CO2 into sustainable methanol…(W)e have technology, which takes CO2 as a waste, and it takes hydrogen and turns it into methanol…and it is used today both like into chemicals. So, the chemical sector is a big consumer of methanol, which is a very large known product in the world today. …(and into) a sustainable fuel...playing a pretty big role in the energy transition.” Bjork Kristjansdottir on Electric Ladies Podcast One of the creative technologies developed today to both address the climate crisis and accelerate the energy transition is carbon recycling. What is it? Essentially, it's converting CO2 into energy or chemicals. Listen to Bjork Kristjansdottir, COO/CFO of Carbon Recycling International in Iceland explain how it works and how it's used in this fascinating discussion with Electric Ladies host Joan Michelson.  You'll hear about: How they “recycle carbon” – from capture to converting it to how it's used. How the chemicals made from carbon recycling are used. Why methanol is so important in the energy transition and how they make it How they are making sustainable aviation fuel from carbon recycling Plus, insightful career advice, such as… “My advice is first, like it's around decisions. So, we need to make decisions. Postponing making decisions puts you at the risk things will just happen to you.…And remember that, when we do make those decision in our career, it is always based on the best information available at the time. Things may change, it doesn't make it a wrong decision.. (and) You don't need to learn and be the best at everything yourself. What you need to do is to learn how to listen and harvest all of the potential, all of the talent around you… get comfortable with asking the right questions.” Bjork Kristjansdottir on Electric Ladies Podcast Read Joan's Forbes articles here too.

with Brad Friedman & Desi Doyen

It's an exciting time for geothermal energy. The US Department of Energy predicts geothermal power generation capacity to grow by 26 times by 2050, potentially providing almost 10% of the US' total power needs. To talk about the policy and technology that's needed to achieve this goal is Kevin Jones, enhanced geothermal program manager at the DOE. He speaks to Carolyn Kissane about pilot projects in the US and the pioneering work they are doing. What makes geothermal so exciting is its reliability as it's available 24/7, whatever the weather. Enhanced geothermal systems are also revolutionising the field, allowing for the extraction of heat from deeper, previously unreachable rock formations. This cutting-edge technology opens up vast new areas for geothermal development, even in regions without traditional geothermal activity. Michael Webber is a professor of mechanical engineering at the University of Texas in Austin, and he also joins the show to talk Carolyn through the technology that could unlock enough power to meet 3-5% of the world's demands by 2050. It's not only electricity generation that geothermal energy can provide. It has use as a heat source too, and co-host Laura Young finds out how the UK's only geothermal plant works as she talks to Eden Geothermal CEO Gus Grand. The views expressed in this podcast are those of the participants and do not reflect the activities of National Grid

Today's Story: Stepping Towards Energy Resilience

Geothermal energy is renewable, reliable and powerful. So, why is most of it untapped? That's what our listener, Anna in the UK, wants to know. Full disclosure, she's a geologist and is thoroughly perplexed by the lack of uptake. Geothermal is renewable, reliable and abundant and yet, less than 1% of the world's energy is generated from it. Host Graihagh Jackson hears about a team in Iceland who hope to "super-charge" geothermal power by drilling directly into volcanic magma. And she travels to Germany to visit Vulcan Energy, a company which is combining geothermal with extracting one of the world's most sought-after metals: Lithium. Plus, our reporter in Indonesia tells Graihagh about local opposition to some geothermal power plants.Got a question you'd like answered?

Public schools in Minnesota have a growing need to be equipped for a wide range of temperatures. School years in the state can be hot and muggy on either end and freezing in the middle. And if students are uncomfortable, it's difficult to focus on learning. A high school on the East Side of Saint Paul is wrapping up its first year with a new heating and cooling system that draws energy from the ground. The district plans to install more of these geothermal systems at two other schools as part of its goal of cutting greenhouse gas pollution. The district is joining a larger wave of investments in geothermal energy. Sahan Journal climate and environment reporter Andrew Hazzard wrote about the district's switch and joined Minnesota Now to talk about it.

In this episode of Flanigan's Eco-Logic, father-daughter duo, Ted and Sierra Flanigan conclude the clean energy crash course mini series focusing on Ted's international travels. Part 3 focuses on Ted's work and tours in the Philippines, Sweden, Germany, Spain, and concluding with Iceland. They dive into the context for each trip, and discuss lessons learned.Ted begins with his work in the Philippines as part of the Efficient Lighting Initiative to accelerate transitions to more efficient lighting in developing countries. There was a big focus on rural electrification and advancing more efficient technologies. He then hops over to Sweden for four consecutive summers with The Energy Coalition. The purpose of these trips were exchanges with utility and city officials from California, notably from Irvine and Santa Monica, and vice versa, as well as with students through the PEAK program. Ted highlights the district heating systems and comfort utility rates.Sierra then asks Ted about his solar tours in Germany and Spain. He starts with Germany, unpacking the reason why Germany is seen as a global leader in solar, and sharing the story of the most lucrative feed-in tariff (FIT) ever implemented. He then moves on to Spain, highlighting the difference with their FIT program, which was not quite as rich, but really moving the market at the time.They conclude with the tour of Iceland's geothermal facility, and Ted shares how impressed he was by the sheer amount of geothermal energy and electricity as a result, that the country started converting cars to hydrogen fuel with the excess to decarbonize their transportation sector.Ted and Sierra wrap the three-part series, highlighting how rich the world is with renewables, and how much can be learned when travelling with a mission and broadening horizons.

Recent legislation in the US promises to be a boon for geothermal energy production.In January, the US House Energy and Commerce Committee passed a bipartisan bill that could have a big impact on the geothermal sector. Effectively putting geothermal on the same footing as oil and gas - by excluding geothermal development from strict NEPA rules – the bill could cut the red tape and boost production in the sector.Geothermal has a lot of potential. The DOE estimates it could contribute almost 10% of US energy capacity by 2050. New geothermal technology, which uses horizontal drilling to drill multiple wells into geothermal reservoirs from a single location, is a promising start, but more innovation is needed to become cost competitive. Joining David to discuss the legislation, and the technology that underpins the geothermal sector, are Dr Joseph Moore - Research Professor at the University of Utah and Managing Principal Investigator at Utah FORGE, a geothermal research facility managed by the Energy & Geoscience Institute at the University of Utah, and sponsored by the DOE – and Lauren Boyd, Director of the EERE's Geothermal Technologies Office, which is sponsoring the Utah FORGE laboratory. Together they examine the cost, operation and scope for geothermal energy in the US.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Want to go electric? We might need to dig a little deeper… into the Earth's crust. Researchers and startups are testing new technology and drilling techniques to harness geothermal energy – heat from the Earth that can be used to generate electricity. It's a renewable energy source that has been billed as a way to boost energy independence while reducing carbon emissions. But because of technical limitations, geothermal made up just 0.4% of all electricity generated in the U.S last year. The Biden Administration and energy giants such as Chevron are investing in geothermal, with the aim that your lights, your cell phone and your electric car might be powered by geothermal in the future. WSJ's Alex Ossola explores what it will take for geothermal energy to scale.  What do you think about the show?
