@TechCrunch I'd be curious how they've worked out the diminishing returns of a given bore hole.
For heating/cooling, geothermal is effectively unlimited b/c it recharges itself as the seasons turn over. In Summer it moves heat into rock to cool the home, in winter it removes heat for use.
Power generation is 100% one direction drawing out heat and rock doesn't transmit heat efficiently to replenish faster than it's pulled out.
One solution is drilling extra bore holes but that's the $$$ part of geothermal. If recharge happens over, say, 2 years of idle, you drill 3x the number of bore holes you need for your capacity. If it's 3 years to recharge you need 4x your capacity drilled, etc.

TechCrunch: For open source programs, AI coding tools are a mixed blessing. “Earlier this month, developer Mitchell Hashimoto launched a system that would limit GitHub contributions to ‘vouched’ users, effectively closing the open-door policy for open source software. As Hashimoto put it in the announcement, ‘AI eliminated the natural barrier to entry that let OSS projects trust by default.'”
