For this week's episode we go just a little ways North into the heart of the energy rich province of Saskatchewan. I sit down with Kirsten Marcia, the president and CEO of DEEP Earth Energy Production to discuss the new project they are developing with horizontal wells to deliver sustainable, baseload power.
"Innovation in action." That is how Kirsten Marcia, the President and CEO of Deep Earth Energy Production describes what the team at DEEP is doing with their newly commissioned 20-32 MW Geothermal Project in the province of Saskatchewan. Leaning on the decades of Oil and Gas experience that shaped the region, they are deploying horizontal drilling technologies to access medium enthalpy geothermal brines. This project is set to catalyze change in the power, agricultural, food processing and job sectors with flexible, dispatchable power plants. They are even looking at working hand in hand with the nearby Oil and Gas operators to take the excess flare gas and use it to power the pumps at their Geothermal operation to further green up a green energy source. This symbiotic relationship is key to the energy transition/diversification and reaching our net zero goals.
