Geothermal Power in Alberta

FutEra Power has developed the first of its kind Co-Produced Geothermal Hybrid Power plant in Swan Hills, Alberta, representing the first geothermal electrons on grid in Alberta and Canada. FutEra harnessed the value of a world class oil and gas asset, including the sunk costs of infrastructure, existing oil and gas permits, and the expertise of its oil and gas professionals to build geothermal in a novel way. Now, FutEra will lead the next evolution of geothermal heat and power development ‘at the well head’. FutEra Power is an aspiring leader in transitioning the energy complex to cleaner heat and power generation, and sustainable infrastructure, to meet society’s desire for lower carbon energy solutions. The talk will describe the project, the process of innovation and practical realities of building clean technology, from creating regulatory pathways to finding capital.
