Exploring Nova Scotia’s Geothermal Opportunities

221103 - Webinar - Geothermal

Russell Dmytriw, Net Zero Atlantic and Mark TeKamp, Nova Scotia Department of Natural Resources and Renewables

Since October 2021, the Nova Scotia Department of Natural Resources and Renewables (NRR) in collaboration with Net Zero Atlantic (NZA), has commissioned a number of studies to investigate Nova Scotia’s geothermal resources, assess subsurface knowledge gaps and determine what additional steps would serve to further de-risk geothermal project development in the province. Join us as NRR and NZA jointly present an overview of the province’s deep, mid-depth and mine water geothermal potential, the economics of mid-depth geothermal project development, and the nature of the additional work needed to address outstanding technical and geological questions.
