Harnessing Ocean Floor Heat for Clean Energy
from Tech News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
A former SpaceX engineer is revolutionizing clean energy by diving into the ocean floor to tap geothermal power—raising $54 million to harness Earth’s heat where tectonic plates spread apart. Unlike land-based geothermal, this offshore approach promises 24/7 renewable energy, fast deployment, and the potential to power entire coastal cities along the Pacific Ring of Fire. With engineering hurdles like pressure and saltwater corrosion, the startup leverages oil and gas expertise to make it work—using AI to pinpoint optimal sites while avoiding marine protected zones. This bold move could unlock a massive, untapped energy source right beneath our feet. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
