LATIN AMERICA not imported to generate power , on the contrary , this has been complemented with the use of wind farms , hydropower and biomass plants .
With the growing popularity of geothermal energy as an alternative to fossil fuels , Polaris Infrastructure has invested a large capital in research and development . Intending to use EGS systems , although not yet commercially viable , these are designed to remove heat from areas with low permeability and porosity , to substantially improve extraction methodologies .
Additionally , Polaris plans to introduce these enhanced geothermal systems , which consist in production and injection wells drilled at more than 10,000 feet , deep enough to reach permeability and porosity .
In an important recent report entitled “ The Future of Geothermal Energy ”, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology estimates that EGS could provide up to 100 GW of new geothermal capacity .
