Geo-Energie Jura SA (GEJ) has successfully completed the exploration phase of the Haute-Sorne (Canton Jura, Switzerland) geothermal pilot project. Tests conducted in July in the deep borehole confirm that rock permeability can be increased sufficiently to create a usable geothermal reservoir—while complying with the prescribed seismic thresholds. Geothermal energy is available around the clock, produces no CO₂ emissions, and is an ideal complement to other renewable energy sources.
