Okay thank you, @JaneAFlegal. Let's talk BAAJA & geothermal. If you want clean, affordable, baseload power and you want it fast, enhanced geothermal is your technology. If you want to unlock the Geothermal Decade even faster, BAAJA is your bill. 🧵
To a degree people are not yet appreciating, the geothermal provisions in BAAJA may be among the highest impact for accelerating global decarbonization.

🔌 @fervoenergy's Cape Station reaches commercial operation AHEAD of schedule! The team executed on the first greenfield EGS project in the world to hit commercial operation--ahead of schedule. As usual, I am so so proud of them #geothermal #Innovation #energy #technology

Huge kudos to the 4 senators and the White House for completing negotiations on energy permitting reform. The bill has been so difficult because the 4 senators came with very different priorities and constituencies. Capito (R-WV): pipelines and permitting certainty Whitehouse (D-RI): reducing emissions Lee (R-UT): removing regulatory barriers and protecting states' rights Heinrich (D-NM): protecting lands; transmission and renewables They came to the table because the current system fails on all four sets of priorities. But permitting reform is not zero sum. This deal advances all of them. It's good for America and the American people.

Today, @ENERGY launched the Geothermal Center of Excellence in Golden, CO to help unlock more affordable, reliable American energy. By bringing our labs, researchers, and industry together, we’re working to turn the heat beneath our feet into around-the-clock American power.

We were one of @fervoenergy's first investors because our partner Dave Danielson saw what @TimMLatimer saw: oil and gas drilling techniques could make geothermal scalable. Now, Cape Station in Milford, Utah is set to test enhanced geothermal at utility scale. bth-energy.com/3Undv1E

Before @fervoenergy was public, @TimMLatimer was asking a sharp question: could oil and gas drilling unlock geothermal at scale? Congratulations to Tim on being named a @FastCompany 2026 Visionary of the Year. bth-energy.com/4w4XUBl

We get asked this question often, does geothermal have a turbine shortage like gas? No. Geothermal turbines operate at much lower temperatures (~150-250 C) than gas turbines (1300+ C), and can be forged with conventional polycrystalline steels, of which thousands of foundries can do so globally, in contrast to <10 foundries that can cast the superalloy monocrystalline blades for gas turbines. Even as geothermal scales like gas, we won't run into this bottleneck bc of our simplicity and the deep bench of foundries we can tap. The hard part for geothermal is not the topside, it's the bottomside.
Order a large gas turbine today and the slot you're quoted runs into 2029 or 2030. GE Vernova has 100 GW on contract, because data centers booked the factory dates first. That changes how a power plant gets built. The schedule no longer starts with the permit or the construction, it starts with the slot the manufacturer gives you. That date is the fixed bar on the Gantt chart, and everything else is scheduled backward from it. utilitydive.com/news/ge-vern…

I am getting results for American energy that is made in Utah! The House just passed my GEO Act legislation to cut red tape, speed up geothermal permitting, and help unlock Utah’s world-class geothermal energy potential. My bill requires federal agencies to make a decision within 60 days after environmental reviews are complete. This will result in more reliable American energy, more high-paying rural jobs, and more investment right here in Utah. catcountryutah.com/ixp/1124/…

BREAKING: I’m helping UNLEASH geothermal energy. As the United States continues to face both increasing energy demand here at home and rising energy costs from abroad, fully harnessing our domestic geothermal resources is more important than ever. With energy bills going up, we need to embrace an all-of-the-above approach to bring these costs down for hardworking Americans.  Today, I voted to pass the bipartisan Geothermal Energy Advancement Act to do just that.

Making it easier to get more geothermal built faster is a huge win. More good-paying jobs, lower energy costs, and greater energy security - that’s what we’re unlocking with today’s reforms.
Exciting news! The House is voting on a bill today to improve geothermal permitting, siting, and building. The package includes good ideas from @RepMaloyUtah @RepMikeKennedy @RepAOC. Geothermal energy is critical to achieve energy abundance and these reforms are important parts of the path there.

Great news out of DC: legislative package of geothermal permitting reform bills PASSES out of the House with unanimous bipartisan support. Lots of leadership to thank for this achievement – Republicans and Democrats alike – and now it's off to the Senate! egsdc.org/resources/egs-dc-s…
