Point made for more geothermal efforts in Canadian Alberta

Point made for more geothermal efforts in Canadian Alberta

In a recent opinion piece in the Edmonton Journal, Edmonton is the capital of the Canadian province of Alberta, the author makes a case for geothermal research in Alberta.

He points out that there have been drilling efforts for everything but geothermal, and that “all drilling operations [in the province] were required to have an engineer record depth, temperature, pressure, etc., and send core samples to the Alberta government. Those records could be researched for geothermal opportunities. Why is the Alberta government ignoring this potential? They talk about “looking at alternative energy sources,” but only spend billions on oil and gas “research and development.”
