We need substantially more energy than anyone thought, and we need it soon. For the past few decades, energy demand has been mostly flat.

Founders get it too. Companies like Zanskar Geothermal & Minerals, Inc. Quaise Energy, and Fervo Energy are developing new tools to solve this longtime challenge.
