An infinite energy source found in Europe, but there's a catch.
The French company CGG (Compagnie Générale de Géophysique-Veritas) proposed using geothermal energy and tectonic movements to address the problem of fluctuations in electricity production. It also proposes producing green hydrogen and ammonia, which can be used in the automotive industry without emitting pollutants. CGG boasts profound knowledge of geophysical phenomena and specializes in their utilization in new technologies.
The CGG project involves installing offshore geothermal stations at sea depths in the North Sea. These stations will be able to capture heat released between tectonic plates. The area planned for the installation of the stations covers about 65,000 square kilometers. The technology developed by MIT provides stable energy supply for 20 million years.
CGG's plan also includes the process of converting heat into electricity and the production of green hydrogen and ammonia. Additionally, the project may provide access to fresh water, which is a critical resource.
CGG technology is in the development stage and requires further research to assess its impact and economic feasibility.
