A transformative investment from Energi Simulation, a Calgary-based not-for-profit organization, totalling $1 million CAD over the next five years, builds on this vision and establishes the Energi Simulation Centre for Geothermal Systems Research and the Energi Simulation Industrial Research Chair in Geothermal Systems, which will be held by Dr. Roman Shor, an Associate Professor in the Department of Chemical and Petroleum Engineering at the Schulich School of Engineering.

Volcanoes beneath mountains near Whistler, B.C., hold a big green energy promise. But can scientists and industry deliver?

The Alberta Energy Regulator is seeking feedback on the proposed new Draft Directive: Brine-Hosted Mineral Resource Development. The draft directive sets out the requirements that industry must follow for mineral resource development and covers the entire development life cycle, from initiation through to closure.

Canada's First Nation Radio (CFNR) featured the Fuel for Reconciliation project on their news show. Kitsela's Geothermal Director, Alison Thompson was interviewed about the history of Kitselas Geothermal, the context behind the deal, and the opportunity for geothermal.

Geothermal energy has been identified as a potential opportunity for extending the energy capacity locally and globally. Energy will be harvested by accessing deep formations and drawing hot fluids that can be used for electricity generation or direct heating. This is very similar to accessing hot formations to recover hydrocarbons.
