Vancouver, BC – January 16, 2024 – A new Geoscience BC geological carbon capture and storage (CCS) project will assess potential for storing carbon emissions in parts of central and northern British Columbia. The project will provide essential public and foundational geological research needed to inform a transition to a net-zero emissions economy. Geoscience BC […]

Project lead Gord MacMahon will present an online technical talk to the Canadian Energy Geoscience Association on March 27, 2024. Details will be confirmed in early March. Vancouver, BC – January 9, 2024 – A new report published by Geoscience BC provides further evidence of a potential geothermal direct-heat source near Kootenay Lake in BC’s Southeast […]

Vancouver, BC – February 21, 2023 – Research results published by Geoscience BC help to zone in on geothermal potential in the Kootenay Lake area of British Columbia’s Southeast Region. The results bring scientific back-up to previously held views that the area east of Kootenay Lake may be a potential geothermal resource. Following fieldwork in summer […]

Vancouver, BC – December 8, 2022 – Geoscience BC is supporting a geothermal potential assessment at Kootenay Lake, British Columbia, by funding new geochemical water analyses. The work is part of an ongoing study at Kootenay Lake looking at the potential for ‘direct-use’ geothermal – using geothermal heat in residential, commercial or industrial applications – […]
