Secretary of Energy Chris Wright on Tuesday threw his support behind a vast expansion in geothermal energy. Emerging forms of geothermal use technology from the fossil fuel industry to generate power on demand without air pollution — something Wright’s company, Liberty Energy, invested millions in. While geothermal “hasn’t achieved liftoff yet, it should and it […] The post Energy Secretary Chris Wright throws support behind geothermal boom appeared first on Texas Geothermal.| Texas Geothermal
AUSTIN – The Railroad Commission of Texas has issued its first permit for a deep geo-pressured, geothermal well to Sage Geosystems in Atascosa County. Located south of San Antonio in the Anaconcho Formation, this well permit marks a significant milestone in Texas’ energy sector as the first deep geo-pressured, geothermal permit issued since the Texas […] The post RRC Reaches New Energy Milestone with First Permitted Geothermal Well appeared first on Texas Geothermal.| Texas Geothermal

The state’s wildcatting entrepreneurs, embrace of light regulations, and, of course, drilling experience have set the stage for a world-leading boom in geothermal energy production. Even Trump is excited about it. In a “drill, baby, drill” administration that has already shut down wind energy expansion and put the solar industry in limbo by pausing funding and threatening Inflation Reduction […] The post Texas could be Trump’s one clean energy bright spot—as oil drillers turn ...| Texas Geothermal
AUSTIN, Texas — Even as President Trump slashes support for wind and solar energy, another renewable energy source is finding unexpected favor under his second administration. In early February, newly confirmed Secretary of Energy Chris Wright named geothermal energy, which uses underground heat to generate clean heat and electricity, as one of the prime areas for department research and […] The post Why the ‘redheaded stepchild’ of renewable energy is poised to rise under Trump a...| Texas Geothermal
Geothermal startups hit funding and project milestones this year, buoyed by growing demand for carbon-free energy from data centers, factories, and EVs. Geothermal energy today plays only a minor role in the U.S. electricity mix. Most of the country lacks natural features like hot springs and geysers, where Earth’s simmering heat is relatively easy to reach. But an […] The post Was 2024 a breakout year for next-generation geothermal energy? appeared first on Texas Geothermal.| Texas Geothermal
