Because space requirements and intermittency limit the ultimate potential of other renewable energy super-sources, ultradeep geothermal may be the most exciting energy alternative on the horizon. However, ultradeep geothermal’s enormous potential can only be achieved if we can reliably drill deep beneath the surface and tap into superheated rock. As Quaise Energy’s Carlos Araque, formerly a Schlumberger engineer, has noted: “A lot of the challenges are the same as for oil and gas.”

This short video provides a good summary of the drilling technology that is under development.
