Newberry Volcano Project

Electricity and hot water generation

Geothermal energy research and volcanic magma exploration

Geothermal resource exploration

Exploration of high-enthalpy geothermal resources by drilling into supercritical fluids found in volcanic areas, as pursued by the Iceland Deep Drilling Project.

Direct drilling into active volcanic magma to access extreme heat sources for energy generation and scientific observation.

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.
