EGEC: Carbfix and Eavor Geothermal Innovators of the Year
This year the Ruggero Bertani European Geothermal Innovation Award 2020 was earned by the Icelandic Carbfix project and German company Eavor on equal merit.
The Carbfix process captures CO2 and other sour gases from emission sources, transforming them into rocks underground in less than two years. This overturns the common view that mineral storage in Carbon Capture & Storage projects takes hundreds to thousands of years. Carbfix has global scaling potential in and beyond the geothermal industry for decarbonising the economy.
Eavor’s innovation is a novel and scalable closed-loop geothermal system of several deep horizontal wells connected to vertical wells. This overcomes the limitation of deep geothermal systems, which normally rely on vertical single wells only. By running on thermosiphon, it also enables the geothermal industry to offer both a baseload and dispatchable energy source.

Flatiron awarded Rehabilitation and Lane Replacements Project in Los Angeles
Flatiron has been awarded a contract for a key project to rehabilitate a nearly 10-mile stretch of State Route 210 in the Los Angeles community. Work on the more than $135 million contract for the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) is expected to commence later this spring. Flatiron is one of the largest infrastructure contractors in North America.
The bid-build delivery project will rehabilitate the pavement on SR 210 (from I-5 to the Wheatland Avenue Undercrossing), utilizing approximately 160,000 cubic yards of jointed plain concrete pavement. “We are excited to deliver this great project,” said Dale Nelson, Senior Vice President of Flatiron’s Southwest Division. “Our team has put together a strategy to rehabilitate this busy stretch of highway in the safest and most cost-effective manner possible.”
Flatiron expects to receive notice to proceed from Caltrans in the coming months.
