E2E Energy Solutions (E2E) and Novus Earth have signed a letter of intent to joint develop the Latitude 53 geothermal project in Hinton, Alberta, Canada. The project envisions a two-phase development which will include a geothermal heated greenhouse, and a 10-MW geothermal power plant. Construction is expected to begin by 2025.

The first phase of the Latitude 53 project aims to support year-round cultivation of strawberries across a 20-acre greenhouse using approximately 50 GJ of geothermal heat per hour. The second phase then aims to generate 10 MW installed capacity of geothermal power.

A crucial element for the project is E2E’s patented Enhanced Geothermal Reservoir Recovery System (EGRRS), essentially a combination of conventional and EGS technologies. More information on this novel geothermal system is provided in a previous news piece on a pilot project in Rainbow Lake.

The Latitude 53 project, which we first reported on back in 2022, is expected to foster economic growth and employment opportunities in Hinton and the West Yellowhead region. The project has received Government of Canada funding and will be supported by Ormat Technologies.

“We are looking forward to introducing this innovative approach to thermal and electrical generation to Alberta,” said Jeff Mesner, President of Novus Earth. “Our partnership with E2E Energy Solutions perfectly aligns with our mission to leverage advanced geothermal technology for sustainable, community-centered projects.”

“We’re very pleased to see our EGRRS technology integrated into a project that will bring stable, affordable energy to Alberta,” said Nick Daprocida, CEO of E2E Energy Solutions.
