Carbon-Free,
Flexible Renewable Power
Zero emission, 24/7 renewable electric power that can “load follow” to support intermittent renewables like solar and wind.
The Energy Beneath Our Feet
Flexible Carbon-Free Power
Unlike Any Other Renewable Electricity Source
Hotrock Energy Research Organization (HERO) engages in collaborative and transformative research into the science and technologies related to Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS) and other advanced geothermal energy technologies. We educate the public on the importance of such research in addressing societal issues of energy supply and climate change.
The climate needs a HERO!
Benefits of Enhanced Geothermal Systems
Cost Competitive
Electricity
An EGS plant has low,
competitive energy costs
between 5-6₵/kWh
Job
Generation
Creates jobs and allows for
coal power plant and mine
workers to transition into geothermal plant roles.
