Zanskar used AI tools to identify a site that could host a commercial power plant. Zanskar used AI tools to help revive a New Mexico geothermal plant. Now, the company found a hotspot that could support a new power plant. Sometimes geothermal hot spots are obvious, marked by geysers and hot springs on the planet's surface. But in other places, they're obscured thousands of feet underground. Now AI could help uncover these hidden pockets of potential power.

Zanskar uses AI to identify hidden geothermal systems--and claims it has found one that could fuel a power plant, the first such discovery by industry in decades. A geothermal startup said Thursday that it has hit gold in Nevada--metaphorically speaking. Zanskar, which uses AI to find hidden geothermal resources deep underground, says that it has identified a new commercially viable site for a potential power plant. The discovery, the company claims, is the first of its kind made by the industry in decades. The find is the culmination of years of research on how to find these resources--and points to the growing promise of geothermal energy .
