Geothermal energy is one of the most promising solutions to the surging energy. ☄️ But drilling to the super hot rock many miles down is a vexing technical challenge and is one reason why geothermal provides <1% of global electricity.

📽️ Our next 𝐒𝐎𝐒𝐕 𝐃𝐞𝐞𝐩 𝐓𝐞𝐜𝐡 𝐋𝐈𝐕𝐄  features Carlos Araque (CEO, Quaise Energy) and Duncan Turner (General Partner, SOSV & Managing Director, SOSV HAX), exploring:

➡️ Why conventional geothermal stalled

➡️ The cost & resource realities of drilling into superhot rock

➡️ Lessons learned partnering with oil & gas incumbents

➡️ An inside look at the 1st superhot geothermal power plant in the U.S.

Quaise Energy is spinout from the Plasma Science and Fusion Center at MIT, that is pioneering a radically new drilling technology.

An MIT-trained engineer, Carlos spent 15 years on complex energy systems at SLB (Schlumberger), before joining MIT’s The Engine to commercialize tech.
