Comment on Fervo Energy hits milestone in using oil drilling technology to tap geothermal energy

This seems promising. Though given that it seems to involve fracking (as the article implies I think?) I do have some concerns in that regard.
Of course that doesn’t mean I’m opposed to this. Decarbonizing the energy sector is probably a bigger priority for the time being, I’d say, but it’s always useful to be cautious.

Yes, it means fracking hot rock, so that you can circulate a fluid between two wells. The fossil fuels industry uses fracking to connect pores within rock formations so that oil and gas can be removed.
