"An initiative that sounds a lot like Jules Verne‘s
Journey to the Center of
the Earth might mark the first time humans have tapped into magma, the molten
rock liquid flowing beneath Earth’s crust. In 2026, Iceland’s Krafla Magma
Testbed (KMT) project will drill into a volcano’s magma chamber, seeking to tap
into its super-hot fumes to generate geothermal energy at a scale that has
never been attempted before.
The endeavor promises to power homes across Iceland with a renewable, limitless
energy source. And no, this won’t cause the currently active Krafla volcano to
erupt, according to John Eichelberger, a volcanologist at the University of
Alaska Fairbanks interviewed by
New Scientist."
