> Do we need to reach magma? Nope. Over the last ~20 years the drilling industry has gotten good at: angle drilling (not slant drilling but turning the drill angle at the bottom) and fracking, or pumping fluid through rock to break it up. This means conventional methods can dig far down, turn the drill and make a reserve with fracking. The heat is much less but it's conventional technology. https://www.ted.com/talks/jamie_c_beard_the_untapped_energy_source_that_could_power_the_planet https://www.ted.com/talks/jamie_c_beard_the_untapped_energy_...
