DeepPower, Inc. Announces Breakthrough Geothermal Drilling Technology
DeepPower, Inc., the developer of a revolutionary geothermal drilling technology, recently announced a pivotal discussion between CEO Andrew Van Noy and Konstantine Anthony, Mayor of Burbank, California. Mayor Anthony, known for his record-breaking election and dedication to community-owned power plants, emphasized the challenges cities face in transitioning to cleaner energy sources, particularly with the state's carbon neutrality mandate by 2045. DeepPower's innovative drilling technology aims to harness the Earth's unlimited source of geothermal energy, providing a constant and low-cost source of power.
Key Takeaways:
- DeepPower, Inc. is developing a breakthrough geothermal drilling technology to access the Earth's unlimited source of clean energy.
- The technology involves drilling 9-inch holes 5 miles deep, which can produce the same amount of power as 320 acres of solar panels.
- Mayor Konstantine Anthony of Burbank, California, discussed the benefits of community-owned power plants and the challenges cities face in transitioning to cleaner energy sources.
- The city of Burbank is currently powered by a 323-megawatt natural gas-fired combined-cycle electrical power generating facility, but still needs to meet the state's carbon zero goals by 2045.
- Mayor Anthony expressed concerns about the state's mandate for municipalities to move to green energy without providing sufficient resources, which increases costs and makes it difficult for cities to afford the transition.
Statistics:
- 0.1% of the Earth's molten core's heat energy can power humanity for 2 million years.
- DeepPower's technology can drill 5 miles deep, accessing heat energy to produce low-cost green electricity.
- 9-inch hole drilled 5 miles deep can produce the same amount of power as 320 acres of solar panels.
