To date, Europe has been importing the bulk of its lithium from the “lithium triangle” in SouthAmerica, and from Australia. German-Australian startup Vulcan Energy Resources says it can deliver carbon-neutral lithium, extracted at geothermalpower stations. The company plans to invest 1.7
Colombian state-owned petroleum company Ecopetrol has announced that it will now invest on drilling for the planned geothermalpower generation project in Caldas, Colombia. The plan for the first phase of the project is to develop a 30-MW geothermalpower plant.
The Ecuadorian Government, through the Electric Corporation of Ecuador (CELEC), has published an invitation for Expressions of Interest (EOI) and financial proposals for consulting services for the construction of a geothermalpower plant at the Chachimbiro site in Ecuador.
Beneath California’s Salton Sea lies a vast pool of super-heated fluid that’s long been exploited as a source of geothermalpower. Lilac has partnered with the Australian firm Controlled Thermal Resources to develop a geothermalpower plant and lithium-extraction facility at the Salton Sea.
Development at the Chachimbiro geothermal site is targeting an installed capacity of 50 MW. According to CELEC, the construction of the geothermalpower plant has an estimated budget of $250 million. Located in the Imbabura province in northern Ecuador, the site had been extensively studied and has a 2000-m exploratory well.
The tender process for consultancy services for the construction of a geothermalpower plant at the Chachimbiro site in Ecuador has entered the prequalification stage. Applications for this step will be accepted until 4 January 2025.
The case for geothermal Currently, geothermal accounts for only about 0.5% of the total installed renewable power capacity. However, this is a massive under-representation of the contributions and further potential that geothermal has for decarbonization.
At the forefront of geothermal innovation, ThinkGeoEnergy has partnered with GEOLAC since its inception , and this year is no different. Key Findings from the Whitepaper: Regional Leaders and Growth Opportunities: Mexico leads the region, accounting for 56% of its geothermal capacity.
Colombia currently only has one geothermalpower facility operating – the 100-kW geothermalpower unit by Parex Resources. Earlier this year, Parex was awarded a license for a geothermalpower project in Casanare.
See the full interview at this link: New Energy Events In terms of Toshiba’s technology offering, Mr Takagi particularly highlighted the innovative ‘Geoportable ’ , a small-scale geothermalpower generation plant that showcases Toshiba’s cutting-edge technology.
Many countries are broadening their energy matrix and exploring opportunities to develop geothermalpower projects often in regions where industrialization has not occurred.
Attendees were able to observe the operation of the country’s first geothermal plant and explore its direct applications in the production of products such as candles, coffee and honey.
Colorado-based Gradient Geothermal is overcoming these barriers with a novel yet reasonably practical approach – producing geothermalpower from produced fluids of existing wells in oil and gas fields. “In either case, we generate power, but we can really flexibly meet the goals of our clients,” said Burke.
(source: Celsius Energy) In addition, we have a lot more conventional geothermal resources to develop all around the world, including from deep sedimentary basins. We are going to see large growth in geothermalpower of three types— conventional, enhanced geothermal systems (EGS), and advanced geothermal systems (AGS).
Colombia has awarded the first-ever license for a geothermalpower project in the country to Canada-based company Parex Resources (Parex). According to official documents, the planned power generation capacity for the project will be between 15 to 60 kW, with the possibility of increasing up to 120 kW.
A “shallow geothermal system” is defined in this proposal as being less than 400 meters depth and at temperatures below 90 °C. The current geothermal law was created to enable the development of large-scale geothermalpower projects through the granting of exploration and exploitation concessions.
