Geothermal

More than two dozen countries generate electricity from geothermal resources and many more use the heat directly for industrial, leisure and domestic applications.

Emission reduction targets have provided new impetus for the development of geothermal resources and the industry is experiencing an unprecedented level of activity.

Modern exploitation techniques to create Engineered Geothermal Systems (EGS) are further enhancing the potential for growth.

Financial incentives are encouraging exploration in regions previously not considered as viable for geothermal utilization.

GeoScience has more than 30 years experience in research, demonstration and commercial exploitation of geothermal resources of all types. As the original operators of the UK Hot Dry Rock geothermal research programme, we are particularly well placed to offer services in support of EGS projects.

Working with our partners, Geothermal Engineering Limited, we are developing the first commercial geothermal power project in the UK.
