Designing an Intellectual Property and Data Governance Framework for a Superhot Rock Geothermal Testbed
Superhot rock geothermal (SHR) offers a pathway to globally scalable, zero-carbon, always-available power. Achieving this potential requires credible, field-validated evidence of drilling performance, reservoir creation, and high-temperature tool reliability at conditions that individual companies cannot replicate alone. Early-stage SHR development is capital-intensive, technically complex, and commercially sensitive, which makes well-designed SHR testbeds a critical enabler of progress.
