Seattle startup advances plan to draw power from undersea volcanoes
Seattle-based Endurance Energy reached a milestone in its plan to draw energy from undersea volcanoes. The company says it could supply round-the-clock clean power to cities on the US northwest coast. The idea could also apply to other countries along the Pacific Ring of Fire.
Why it matters
Steady geothermal power could complement wind and solar, which depend on the weather.
Background
Geothermal energy uses heat from inside the Earth to make electricity. The Pacific Ring of Fire is a belt of volcanoes around the Pacific Ocean.
