If successfully scaled, this technology could open the door to a virtually unlimited source of clean energy buried beneath our feet. The #gyrotron is the key that unlocks the true potential of #geothermal energy. This intense heat is the foundation of superhot rock geothermal energy, a clean and constant source of electricity that operates without carbon emissions. The International Energy Agency estimates that the heat within the top ten kilometers of Earth’s crust equals 50,000 times the world’s annual energy demand. Quaise plans to drill up to seven kilometers, transforming geothermal from a regional solution into a global, 24/7 energy source.
