Leveraging the expertise of the oil and gas industry to scale geothermal energy, Project Innerspace (get it? opposite of outer space) is poised to rapidly provide the world with unprecedented levels of clean, geothermal power. For example, if we drill for geothermal energy at the rate we currently drill for oil and gas, by 2050 up to 77 percent of global demand for electricity and over 100 percent of global demand for heat can be supplied by geothermal, without the doom and gloom talk.
In this episode, Jamie Beard, Project Innerspace’s founder and executive director, shares her confidence in our ability to forge the missing links to tap into geothermal energy’s abundance.
