Earths Energy (ASX:EE1) engaged specialist electricity market consultant, Resources WA, to prepare an initial assessment of electricity offtake opportunities for its South Australian geothermal projects, according to a filing with the Australian bourse on Monday.
The consultant's report indicates that a primary market mechanism in South Australia is a large-scale power purchase agreement, combined with ancillary services sold into the wholesale market.
This could achieve electricity pricing in the range of AU$65 per megawatt-hour to AU$100 per MWh, as well as market and large generating certificates of AU$12 per MWh.
GLJ, which was engaged by the firm to conduct a techno-economic feasibility study for its South Australia projects, delivered a draft report which recommended that it prioritize the potential Paralana Alpha enhanced geothermal system for economic assessment and development planning.
It also recommended that the firm define a roadmap toward developing Paralana Alpha and derisking the potential Paralana Omega system.
The firm conducted a study into the development of geothermal-powered data centers at its Queensland project and held talks with potential partners. The potential commercial opportunities require further analysis and assessment, it added.
