Geothermal energy

Uttarakhand has approved its first geothermal energy policy to tap into Himalayan hot springs. Experts warn the fragile region may face new ecological threats from drilling and emissions.

Thermal monitoring sensors detect temperature anomalies in critical equipment, enabling predictive maintenance. This improves reliability, enhances safety, reduces downtime, and supports cost-efficient, data-driven operations.

It is a renewable resource that can be harvested for human use. Hydrothermal, geo-pressurized, hot dry rock and magma are all sources of geothermal energy.
