Geothermal energy easing US military's logistics challenges
DIU is doubling its investment in new technology to harness the heat of Earth's core.

A new take on an old energy source is increasing energy resilience at a growing number of DoD installations.

On Tuesday, the Pentagon's Defense Innovation Unit announced that it is doubling to six the number of technology companies involved in an initiative to use advances in geothermal energy technologies, which draws upon liquid heated by the Earth, is carbon neutral, and doesn’t require long and vulnerable supply lines.

“With the addition of three more novel technology companies in this ‘groundbreaking’ initiative, DoD is doubling its efforts to leverage advancements in geothermal commercial technologies for energy resilience and support DoD carbon free energy goals,” Michael Callahan, a senior advisor and program manager for the Defense Innovation Unit’s energy portfolio, said in a statement.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

What is this nonsense?  They plan to bring heat to the surface in the middle of a "global warming crisis?" :whistle:
