Geothermal + lithium extraction delivers dual revenue: clean energy and critical minerals. GEL is already producing renewable power and low-carbon lithium from geothermal brines, with lower costs, emissions and footprint than hard rock mining.

Fantastic news today as the team at GEL announce initial financing of £10m from ABN AMRO to support the development of geothermal power and critical mineral extraction at GEL sites in Cornwall.

Geothermal isn’t just renewable, it’s constant, delivering 24/7 power.
In Cornwall, it also means:
• Low-impact lithium extraction
• Skilled local jobs
• Investment and stronger communities
Cornwall has the potential, GEL is unlocking it.

CEO & Founder of GEL, Ryan Law, joined a Westminster roundtable on the UK’s geothermal potential, led by Cornwall Trade & Investment. Great discussions with Minister Alan Whitehead, Lord Hutton, GB Energy & Cornwall MPs Perran Moon and Noah Law. Proud to champion UK geothermal.

[Geothermal Projects @Geo_Projects]

We have secured DRIVE35 funding (via DBT, APC UK and Innovate UK) to accelerate lithium extraction at our United Downs geothermal site. This supports the scale-up of sustainable, low-carbon lithium production for the automotive sector.

Jane & Claudia from our Community Engagement team at Wadebridge School Careers Fair, speaking with students about geo-resources in Cornwall. With critical minerals & geothermal set to create skilled jobs, we’re sharing real opportunities, and skills needed, through our projects.

[Geothermal Projects @Geo_Projects]

We’re supporting UK geothermal growth through projects like PUSH-IT, exploring heat storage in Cornwall’s abandoned mines using United Downs as a source. Last week’s Falmouth meeting enabled knowledge sharing with partners including Fraunhofer IEG and a GEL site visit.

[Geothermal Projects @Geo_Projects]

GEL CEO, Ryan Law, spoke in London this week at a @biztradegovuk @CMA_Minerals event, highlighting lithium carbonate production from geothermal brines and zero-carbon power. Great to hear Chris McDonald & Varun Chandra on Cornwall’s role. Thanks to local MPs for their support.

“It’s always tough being the UK’s first, deepest (5km) & hottest well, with no prior geothermal projects.”

— GEL CEO Ryan Law

Thanks to Think Geo Energy for sharing our journey of resilience.
