XGS Energy is advancing geothermal energy with a new “specialized mud” that improves well stability, prevents water loss, and enhances heat retention.

XGS Energy is leading innovation in geothermal systems, with the highest application diversity in the power industry, as it advances next-gen geothermal solutions for clean, baseload energy.

Volo Earth Ventures, an early-stage climate firm, has backed XGS Energy as part of its strategy to invest in both demand and supply-side climate technologies, emphasizing the importance of energy services in the sector.

Geothermal company XGS Energy intends to take advantage of Houston’s robust energy talent and infrastructure to grow its footprint.

Palo Alto-based startup XGS Energy has been a leader in delivering clean, reusable energy through its geothermal technology and is looking to expand to larger projects.

XGS Energy, a developer of geothermal heat harvesting technology based in Palo Alto, California, says that the demand for 24/7 clean energy is enormous and urgent, and is optimistic that the US cost target for next-generation geothermal systems can be achieved.

California’s XGS Energy has found a way to access untapped geothermal heat under the Earth’s crust using a “special mud.”

Young geothermal energy wells can be like budding prodigies, each brimming with potential to outshine their peers. But like people, most decline with age. In California, for example, the amount of electricity generated by geothermal power plants declined by 15% between 2001 and 2018, partly because existing wells degraded.

Geothermal startup XGS Energy has closed $20 million primarily to get a demonstration project up and running, the company tells Axios.

There’s growing support for the next generation of geothermal energy tech, which can improve its availability and efficiency, writes Katie.
