ERI - Energy Efficiency and Efficiency of Geothermal Wells
We might be consuming five megawatts of electric power for that first year just for the drilling, but this is yielding a system that can produce 20 times that for 30 years. It's nothing I think out of the realm of what we do today with conventional drilling and even flow testing for geothermal well fields these always involve these very high power megawatts scale diesel generators to begin with. And so it's just finding a way to optimize those in the field and of course, reduce, reduce fuel consumption where we can.
