🌎 Colorado energy innovation worth watching
A compelling shift is underway in the Julesburg Basin of Colorado. In Weld County, Occidental Petroleum is applying decades of oil and gas drilling expertise to unlock geothermal energy, with support from the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Geothermal Technologies.
By drilling as deep as 20,000 feet, the goal is to tackle one of geothermal’s biggest challenges: cost-effective drilling at scale. If successful, this approach could accelerate deployment of clean, reliable thermal energy across Colorado and beyond.
