NEGS™ is about reading the earth and prioritizing naturally fractured, water-saturated, reservoir rocks where nature already did the hard work.
Directionally harvestable by design – not productive by chance.
Using the earth’s own permeability to our advantage. Not engineered fractures, rather naturally occurring pathways conducting heat for millions of years.
Geology does the work. NEGS™ targets formations with naturally fractured hydro rock – eliminating the reservoir creation risk that constrains engineered systems (i.e. EGS).
Davinci targets reservoirs at 350-650°F. Significantly above conventional thresholds. Higher temperatures mean more power per well and superior economics at scale.
NEGS™ relies on proven subsurface geology, not first of its kind stimulation. More predictable, more financeable, and faster to power than EGS alternatives.
A proprietary framework for identifying NEGS™ compatible formations across the Western Hemisphere – repeatable and scalable.
NEGS™ is about reading the earth and prioritizing naturally fractured, water-saturated, reservoir rocks where nature already did the hard work.
EGS uses uses high-volume, high-pressure stimulation engineering to create fractures by force in crystalline basement rocks.
Naturally hydrated sandstone eliminates the need for make-up water for NEGS™ development.
Material fresh water added to injection system replaces fresh water lost from production system.
Permeable and naturally perforated reservoirs.
Requires hydrojacking and proppant stimulation to crack open solid, dry rock.

Compared to EGS, development is half the cost with double the value.
Compared to NEGS™, development is double the cost with half the value.
