Here in the south of Hessen, we are in a particularly advantageous geological location. To put it more accurately: At a depth of around 2,000 to 4,500 meters, a huge energy potential lies dormant in the form of thermal water. Only a few regions in Germany offer such favorable conditions for the extraction of geothermal energy. We utilize this location advantage for you. That is why we are planning to supply the region with climate-neutral heat from renewable energy from 2026 using state-of-the-art geothermal power plants. Numerous households as well as industry and commerce in the region will then benefit from the great potential of a base load-capable supply of climate-neutral heat and, in future, electricity.
Our team consists of regional, national and international experts and we all have one goal: To strengthen the region and secure its pioneering role.

Geothermal heat, also known as geothermal energy, is a renewable energy source that is obtained from the natural heat inside the earth. In deep geothermal energy, heat from deeper layers of the earth’s crust is used for this purpose. This involves drilling wells to access deeper water reservoirs, the energy contained in which is then used to generate heat or electricity. Geothermal energy is seen as an important alternative to fossil fuels and can therefore play a significant role in energy supply in the future.

Climate-neutral: In contrast to fossil fuels, electricity and heat generation is CO2-neutral.
Sustainable: The recirculated deep water heats up again underground and can therefore be reused to generate energy.
Reliable: Compared to other renewable energy sources, energy from geothermal energy is available at all times, even regardless of the weather and time of day.
Regional: Geothermal energy is available to us locally and therefore makes us independent of imports.

At Vulcan, we have a vision for the future: ZERO CARBON LITHIUM™. In addition to generating climate-neutral energy, we also want to be the first company in the world to produce CO2-neutral lithium in order to make the idea of truly climate-neutral electromobility a reality. That is why we use the thermal water not only as a source of energy: We use a tried and tested process to extract valuable lithium from the cooled thermal water. The thermal water is then returned to its underground reservoir in a closed circuit.
