I'm getting suspicious of the geothermal hype. Is there demonstrated competitiveness on LCOE basis with wind/solar? Lazard's report is basically spitballing the values. I think there is potential, but the fact that any sort of development basically goes through the oil/gas industry for their drilling makes me think that geothermal is just oil/gas plotting "don't deploy that wind/solar that is dirt cheap, waste money on this geothermal thing, and especially send us money to spin wheels in the dirt". I get that geothermal won't have intermittency, so that would be good at least.
