Geothermal anywhere: Advanced drilling technology for CO2-free energy could be widespread

[Redaktion]

Geothermal energy can be used to generate electricity at any time of the day or night. But what was previously only possible in specific locations could soon be realised on a large scale thanks to new processes. The first companies are already demonstrating this. Critics, however, see risks in so-called enhanced geothermal technologies, such as an increased threat of earthquakes.

The author should try to explain this passage to make sense:

"Water is then injected deep into the ground to create steam, which is much lighter than liquid water and rises through the pores to drive turbines for power generation."
