A project in the Nevada desert seeks to change the current paradigm. Innovative techniques aim to harness the earth's heat to generate clean and reliable electricity.In the vast expanses of the Nevada desert (United States), an innovative energy project has emerged that defies expectations.
In order not to rely on natural sources such as the sun or wind, the plant known as Project Red extracts heat from deep within the Earth to generate electricity. This system, called geothermal energy, was historically limited to volcanic regions such as Iceland or Kenya, where the earth's heat bubbles to the surface in the form of hot springs. Thanks to technological advances, this clean and constant source of energy is beginning to expand into previously unexplored territories.
The initiative, led by the startup Fervo Energy, promises to revolutionize access to a continuous and carbon-free energy channel, resulting in a viable alternative for the transition to a sustainable future.
