SUPERHOTGEO INDUSTRY LEADERSHIP

Make the U.S. superhot geothermal market legible

America can lead when buyers, developers, government, suppliers and capital work from the same evidence. These five programs turn scattered signals into a visible deployment pipeline for firm power and compute.

FIVE SHARED PROGRAMS

From advocacy to market infrastructure

Each program publishes something useful, gathers structured data, and gives serious participants a next action.

012026 baseline

State of Superhot Power for Compute

An annual, cited record of milestones, demand, capacity, investment, public action, failures and evidence gaps.

  • Project and well milestones
  • Compute demand and offtake signals
  • U.S. supply-chain and policy scorecard
  • Failures and next evidence gates
03Applications open

Compute Design Partners

A working group shaped around real power, siting, diligence and procurement decisions—not a general advisory council.

  • One real, time-bound decision
  • Private evidence-gap working sessions
  • Early access to comparable diligence
  • Optional founding-partner recognition
02Transparent beta

Public-Evidence Readiness Index

A reproducible score for how mature and reviewable the public project record is. This is not a resource estimate, investment rating, or claim of commercial readiness.

U.S. Regional Pilot Cohorts

Place-based coalitions organized around a real demand or resource signal and a concrete twelve-month outcome.

  • Great Basin
  • Pacific Northwest
  • Gulf Coast capability transfer
  • Appalachia deep-resource screening
ACTIONModerated intake

Bring one thing that can move

Signal compute demand, geothermal supply, a site, a capability, a public program, or a decision that needs better evidence.

  • Comparable structured intake
  • Private until reviewed
  • Matched only when there is a credible next step

The Superhot Project Data Standard

A common vocabulary for project comparison that keeps geological systems separate from extraction technology and measured facts separate from modeled claims.

Identity & location

Stable ID, operator, country, region, coordinates and location precision.

System & extraction

Geological system and engineered extraction approach as separate fields.

Evidence

Stage, basis, confidence, temperature, depth, wells and demonstrated capacity.

Compute fit

Firm MW, grid, fiber, campus distance, water strategy and delivery model.

Failures & next gate

What failed, root cause, lessons and the next evidence required.

Provenance

Field-level sources, publishers, dates, evidence type and last review.
