Beaver County, Utah may, at first glance, seem an unlikely hub for breakthrough technical and commercial innovation in geothermal energy. It lacks visible hot springs or geysers, and its remote location is not obviously conducive to supporting a large-scale logistical operation. However, geothermal startup Fervo Energy sees vast potential to generate commercial-scale geothermal energy in this remote valley nestled between three mountain ranges in southwest Utah.

With the first wave of the energy transition, renewable energy sources (such as solar and wind) have begun replacing coal power generation. However, some sectors are lagging behind and struggling to decarbonize more than others, including large-scale transportation like commercial aviation, shipping, and rail transit. Electrofuels (aka eFuels) are the next generation of solutions to help the hardest-to-abate sectors pivot from their reliance on fossil fuels.
