Geothermal Webinars 2024. #9: Supercharging UK Geothermal with the National Geothermal Centre
Supercharging UK Geothermal with the National Geothermal Centre
This is the ninth webinar in our 2024 Geothermal Webinar Series.
From an accidental discovery of hot water whilst mapping the North Pennines to the most recent deep drilling in Cornwall, the UK has a rich geothermal history and much has been achieved by many dedicated people over the years. UK geothermal resources are relatively low temperature but they are spread between a variety of geological settings making them accessible to most areas of the UK with a diverse range of potential uses. Energy supply is now a matter of national security, we face rising energy costs, increasing reliance upon energy imports and are feeling the impacts of climate change. The time is right to make geothermal happen and we have a solution using existing technology that has been beneath our feet all along.
The National Geothermal Centre (NGC) is a not-for profit entity launched in June 2024 to supercharge the uptake of UK geothermal and drive the transition to net zero. NGC has set targets for 10 GW of geothermal heat and 1.5 GW of geothermal electricity in the UK by 2050 and is preparing a roadmap to support the delivery of these targets. This talk will provide more detail on the role of the new centre, opportunities for collaboration and how you can get involved.

    Proposal for Pairing Eavor’s Geothermal Technology with Sustainable Industrial Development in Vanuatu Dear Eavor Team, I hope this message finds you well. My name is David Hans Elze, and I am leading a sustainable development initiative focused on building renewable energy and sustainable industrial infrastructure in island nations, specifically Vanuatu. Our vision is centered on using the islands’ geothermal potential to power industrial manufacturing while maintaining their natural beauty, and we believe that Eavor's groundbreaking closed-loop geothermal technology could be a key enabler of this vision. The Vision: Pairing Sustainable Geothermal Energy with Industrial Manufacturing Vanuatu, located within the Pacific Ring of Fire, has tremendous geothermal energy potential that remains largely untapped. Our proposal seeks to not only harness this energy but to pair it with the production of sustainable materials, such as basalt fiber derived from the volcanic rock abundant on the islands. This approach allows us to drive economic diversification in Vanuatu-one of the key needs for island nations heavily reliant on tourism, especially in the wake of global disruptions such as the COVID-19 pandemic. The beauty of Vanuatu's geothermal resources lies in their ability to be utilized underground, preserving the island's stunning landscapes while providing a clean, renewable power source. By integrating Eavor’s closed-loop geothermal systems, which have minimal environmental footprint, we aim to generate sustainable, baseload power for basalt fiber manufacturing and other commercial industries. These industries can then supply sustainable construction materials, which are increasingly in demand due to the global push for green building practices. Eavor’s Role in Realizing this Vision Eavor’s closed-loop geothermal technology is ideally suited for this environment, offering scalability, reliability, and the ability to deliver dispatchable energy. Your technology’s benign environmental impact aligns perfectly with our goals to preserve Vanuatu’s natural beauty, ensuring that power generation remains out of sight and in harmony with the island’s ecosystems. We envision a sustainable manufacturing hub powered by geothermal energy, producing high-value basalt fiber products that can be exported to global markets. Basalt fiber is known for its durability, lightweight properties, and corrosion resistance, making it perfect for construction, infrastructure, and marine applications, especially in climate-vulnerable regions. Vanuatu could become a center of sustainable industry in the Pacific, leading the region in climate-resilient development. Why this Matters: Economic Resilience and Environmental Protection This project aims to solve two of the most pressing challenges facing small island nations today: Economic Vulnerability: Like many island nations, Vanuatu’s economy is heavily reliant on tourism, which makes it vulnerable to global economic shocks. Our proposal for geothermal-powered industry provides long-term economic resilience, creating high-quality jobs in advanced manufacturing and renewable energy while diversifying the country’s economic base. Climate Change and Environmental Stewardship: Vanuatu is also at the forefront of the global fight against climate change, facing threats like rising sea levels. By using clean energy and promoting sustainable industries, this project not only addresses these challenges but transforms them into opportunities for leadership in climate adaptation and green growth. A Sustainable Future for Vanuatu and Beyond Beyond Vanuatu, we believe this model could be replicated across other island nations in the Pacific and beyond. This initiative positions Vanuatu as a leader in sustainable development and showcases how geothermal energy can power not just homes but entire industries, offering a scalable, replicable solution for other nations with geothermal potential. We believe Eavor’s closed-loop technology is key to unlocking this potential, and we would be thrilled to explore how we can work together to make this vision a reality. We would welcome the opportunity to discuss this further with you and your team at your earliest convenience. Thank you for your time and consideration, and I look forward to hearing from you soon. Best regards,

    Can we utilize Quaise’s drilling tech to The Eavor Close loop geothermal system to reach a much more deep Geothermal wells up to 250-300 Degree centigrade?

  • @flutieflambert
    @flutieflambert ปีที่แล้ว

    Why and how does the eavor loop behave like a battery? Is it because the longer you curtail the flow, the hotter the water gets within the system? In other words, is it because the system delivers a constant amount of energy independent of the flow rate?
