Gold in them hills? Quaise Energy piloting deep geothermal to
According to Quaise, deep geothermal power plants can create 10 times more energy than conventional geothermal can while providing 24/7 baseload power on a relatively small land footprint. The company believes the retrofit of NGM''s TS Power Plant positions Quaise to go from drilling field trials to full commercial deployment of its technology.
Spain
Last year, Spain relied on fossil fuels for 29% of its electricity. Its per capita emissions were almost half the global average and three times lower than their peak in 2005. Coal generation has collapsed over the last two decades, declining from 36% of Spain''s electricity in 2000 to less than 2% in 2023.
