Raser combines geothermal Power with High-Efficiency Electric Motor Technology for a Well-to-Wheels Strategy

As the world’s population grows and more countries industrialize, the demand for more energy increases, not only to meet traditional needs, but to meet urgent new requirements to replace imported foreign oil with domestic electric power for transportation and hybrid electric vehicles.

Of all the renewable energy sources, Geothermal power has the lowest environmental impact with some of the best near-term and over all economic potential.

The western United States contain some of the fastest growing areas of population in the nation. Fortunately, they are also in relatively close proximity to some of the nation’s highest concentrations of accessible geothermal sites.



Many of these sites can be developed profitably using proprietary Geothermal and Heat Recovery technology licensed by Raser to meet this growing demand and to help meet expanding RPS requirements.

Growing concerns over the environment and imported oil have lead to significant increases in government incentives for renewable energy including:

  • Tax Incentives. The passage of legislation amended the IRS tax code providing greater incentives for renewable energy

  • Renewable Portfolio. Standards call for higher percentages of power generation to come from renewable sources

  • Energy Independence. The nation has set energy independence as a national priority.

In addition, Significant incentives are emerging for renewable energy sources that also avoid costly carbon output and green house gases.

This proprietary technology allows 20-35% additional power generation through heat transfer. This means more power generated from lower temperature water, allowing more output from an existing site and many more lower temperature sites to become developed.

By packaging new technology with up to 35% improvements in power generation and by leveraging and monetizing renewable energy tax credits, Raser is uniquely positioned to execute a timely and potentially very profitable green power strategy.

This strategy combines clean renewable power generation with more efficient use of power in electric motors for hybrid vehicles and industrial applications. This strategy is born from a natural synergy of Raser’s three business segments combining power generation, automotive, and industrial market segments.

This is a powerful “Well-to-Wheels” integrated strategy that positions Raser as an emerging key player in the nation’s new energy plan.
