Roch Methodology
An environmentally friendly design of both Geothermal and Hydroelectric Power encased underground
Mining
The Roch Methodology was designed to exploit the synergy of hydro power relying on height but is restricted by topography. Whereas geothermal relies on a high-temperature gradient, but is restricted by shallow depths, a vertical measurement. It’s the mutual disadvantage of their conventional designs that our methodology benefited from. Our system emulates the superior value proposition of Hydro dams and hydrothermal resources without their negative impacts while offering a variety of unique value propositions, such as the availability of development within a mining operation, as our CVO had envisioned as an adolescent and is persisting for after his Mining Engineering Degree.
Hydroelectric
Hydro Power is currently the largest renewable energy producer globally. It has one of the highest operational lifespans of energy generation technologies lasting well beyond 30 years. The Hoover Dam has been in production for nearly a century and its lifespan could potentially be extended for even longer. Hydro is the ideal method of energy generation globally and the largest power facilities in the world have all been hydro dams. The Three Gorges Dam in China is currently in the first place with a generating plate capacity of 222.5GW. Hydro power is an affordable source of clean energy and has been for centuries, and will continue to be so for generations to come.
Geothermal
Geothermal is the mother of all energy sources. The global fossil fuel market has coincidentally been using geothermal energy for eons, as a driving force for its production process. Geothermal in principal is a clean and sustainable energy source. However, it is currently limited to a global availability of resources, located mainly near fault lines. The recent improvements in EGS have increased the global market for geothermal and this technology will be further utilized. We wish to see its widespread adoption come sooner than expected by utilizing EGS within our prospected reservoirs, by increasing the available flow through, permeability, within an existing resource. We shall in principle be extending this resource beyond fault lines by going towards the heat source with the synchronized benefit of hydro.
Environment
Lastly, protecting our Earth's ecosystems is the single most important act capable of protecting our global Climate system and is often overlooked within industries. Earth's Climate is generated by four components:
Atmosphere
The air we breath
Hydrosphere
The Planet's water
Cryosphere
The glaciers and icesheets
Biosphere
The plants and animals
These are the spheres that make Earth the most precious globe in the known universe and we need to preserve and protect them by guaranteeing their health and longevity. Our submerged power plant is ensuring the highest degree of protection of any ecosystems through safeguarding local wildlife.
