Quaise Energy Millimeter-Wave Drilling Technology
Sector: Geothermal • Location: Texas, United States
Source: CPG Click Petróleo e Gás
Quaise Energy, an MIT-born startup, developed a millimeter-wave drilling technology using nuclear fusion-inspired gyrotrons to vaporize granite and basalt at 100 million degrees, enabling drill-less deep geothermal drilling. The technology has successfully drilled 100 meters in central Texas and aims to reach depths of 10 to 20 kilometers to access Earth's heat for geothermal power generation glob
