Fervo Energy

Fervo Energy's geothermal facility in southern Utah where the company achieved its latest 21-day horizontal well drilling record, demonstrating significant advancements in drilling speed and cost reduction.

Fervo Energy's larger geothermal project in Utah featuring wells more than 2,100 feet deeper and hotter than Project Red. The project is slated to become operational in 2026 and reach full non-stop power capacity of 400 MW by 2028.

Fervo Energy's proprietary geothermal technology that uses horizontal drilling techniques adapted from the oil and gas industry to fracture rock formations and circulate water through them. The system generates steam that powers turbines for electricity generation and can operate in areas without shallow hot rocks.

EGS are artificial reservoirs created underground in areas with hot rock, where fluid pathways are enhanced through safe drilling processes to increase connectivity. These pathways allow fluid to flow through the hot rock, bringing heat to the surface for electricity generation.

Renewable energy source that experienced increased production in 2010 alongside solar and wind.

A drilling technique often used in conjunction with hydraulic fracturing, where a wellbore is drilled vertically and then turned to run horizontally through the gas-bearing rock formation.
