Eden GeoPower

The World's 1^st Blockchain Integrated Geothermal Energy Company

Eden GeoPower Inc. is a geothermal technology company that develops off-grid renewable energy infrastructure to meet energy demands of emerging blockchain, cryptocurrency and H₂ production technologies.

THREE CHALLENGES

Energy Intensive Mining Operations

Cryptocurrency mining operations consume enough electricity to power 4,927,360 U.S. households. This is more than Israel, Greece, and Algeria's annual power consumption.

Capital intensive Renewable Energy

Although geothermal energy is one of the cheapest forms of renewable energy, the high initial capital costs of a geothermal project has inhibited innovations in this sector.

Underperforming Geothermal Wells

There are more than 2 Milion retired wells in the U.S. alone. The oil & gas industry is facing a multitude of fines and regulations due to abandoned wells across the country.

ONE SOLUTION

Our solution is to utilize exisiting geothermal infrastructure to produce cheap (< 5¢/kWh) renewable geothermal energy. This energy will be consumed off-grid to power cryptocurrency mining and future H₂ production operations.

We are currently working with partner geothermal and oil & gas companies to develop technologies for transforming abandoned wells into sources of cheap, renewable, geothermal energy. This is supported by 3 provisional patents, as well as a R&D grant from The U.S. - National Science Foundation.

Many abandoned wells are drilled into very hot reservoirs, with the potential to generate MW's of cheap, renewable, geothermal energy. The consitency of geothermal energy creates a unique opportunity to satisfy the energy demands of emerging technologies, which require a stable source of electricity, while also providing the flexibility to operate remotely.

Our system involves a single well acting as an injector and producer at the same location, eliminating a need for the conventional two well system (injector and producer). Hot brine is pulled from deep within the reservoir and interacts with a second working fluid with a much lower boiling point in a downhole heat exchanger (DHE). As the working fluid changes phase, it passes through a turbine-generator assembly placed in the well, generating electricity on it’s way to the surface.

Each project that we develop will be owned, financed, and distributed to a decentralized network of investors. Revenue generated at each power plant will be paid through a security token to a decentralized group of individuals who funded the construction of each facility. This is an opportunity to fight climate change, while increasing one’s assets.

What is geothermal energy?

-geo is of Greek origin and pertains to matters ‘relating to the earth’, while -thermal is of Greek-French origin and is related to ‘heat’. Geothermal energy is heat that is produced at the Earth’s core, which is estimated to have the same temperature as the surface of the Sun. Geothermal energy is naturally displayed on surface as volcanoes, hot springs, fumaroles, and geysers.

How is Geothermal Power generated?

The conventional method of Geothermal Power generation is to tap into natural geothermal reservoirs which contain hot water/steam, pathways for fluid to flow within the rock, and an impermeable cap rock that prevents these fluids from flowing naturally to the surface. Once a reservoir is drilled, hot water/steam is flown to the surface through the wellbore, then the steam turns the blades of a turbine coupled with an electric generator at the surface, generating renewable electricity.

Is Geothermal Power cheaper than solar and wind?

Geothermal Power is usually cheaper than Solar and competitive with Wind due to the fact that the energy source (earth’s core) is active 24/7 at a constant rate. According to numbers from the Energy Information Agency, Geothermal energy’s Levelized Cost of Electricity (LCOE) is 4 cents/kWh while Solar PV is 4.6 cents/kWh and Wind is 3.7 cents/kWh. However, as Solar PV and Wind are intermittent sources, they need to be combined with storage systems, which drastically increases the costs of these projects.

What is bitcoin mining?

Bitcoin mining is the process of verifying and validating transactions between bitcoin users in a trustful manner. This process requires computational power in order to maintain the database of transactions by solving computational puzzles. In turn, it requires electricity and hardware to solve these computational problems. Additionally, in return for the computational power put into the systems (costs of acquiring the hardware and electricity costs), miners are rewarded with newly generated bitcoins and transaction fees as part of the process.

Why does bitcoin mining need energy?

Bitcoin mining requires energy to solve computational problems or puzzles created by the system. The network is calibrated to increase or decrease the difficulty of the puzzles so that every 10 minutes or so, a miner solves a puzzle and therefore is rewarded with bitcoins. As more people or miners join the bitcoin network, the difficulty is increased to maintain the same amount of time (10 minutes) to solve the puzzle, requiring more computational power, and therefore more electricity for each bitcoin produced. Currently, Bitcoin mining consumes more energy than the entire county of Thailand.

Why is Geothermal Power better for bitcoin mining than Solar and Wind?

Bitcoin mining is a 24/7 process that requires a constant source of electricity. In this sense, building renewable solar and wind power plants for Bitcoin mining is un-economical due to the intermittent source of electricity. To provide the 24/7 power needs of a Bitcoin miner, these technologies would require the installation of expensive storage units (image large scale batteries) to provide the required constant supply of electricity. Geothermal is unique because:
1. Geothermal Power is renewable.
2. Geothermal Power is usually cheaper then Solar and Wind (< 5 cents/kWh).
3. Geothermal Power is true baseload (can provide energy 24/7 without requiring energy storage).

I think the idea is great, but I am not interested in being an investor. Is there anyway I can donate money to the company

Donations can be accepted to the following BTC wallet address: 14UAmgS3Pho6bknf7MWLRGdNvAaQdgiFJx
100% of funds donated will be used to fund R$D efforts in the renewable geothermal energy sector

I am a potential investor but would like to clear up some information before I make my final decision. Can I contact anyone from Eden GeoPower to answer my queries?

Yes. Our team will be widely available to answer any questions or concerns; you can submit your questions by using the contact form below or join our telegram channel using this link: Http://t.me/EdenGeo

Can you explain your Security Token model in simple terms?

Our security token will allow people to maintain partial ownership of a power plant. Individuals will be paid in relation to how much of the power facility they own. The token can be liquidated at any time by trading on an alternative token exchange.

What do you mean by a “Decentralized” Power Plant?

Energy infrastructure is currently owned by large corporations and governmental entities. We plan on introducing a new set of investors into the renewable energy sector by ‘backing Bitcoin by power plants’’. We will utilize the high energy demands of “proof-of-work” to develop large MW-scale renewable energy power plants, and will support Satoshi’s Vision by giving ownership of each power plant to the decentralized cryptocurrency community.

Will I really have ownership of these power plants?

Yes. You will literally own a percentage of each power plant.

How do I make money from these security tokens?

Each token will be initially offered at a discounted price. We will follow current SEC regulations to properly issue these tokens as securities, and have the tokens listed on alternative token exchanges. These tokens can 1.) be sold on exchanges after purchase or 2.) held on to and allowed to return dividends as the power plant generates revenue.
Here is a simplified example: Bob own’s 10% of a power plant that he purchased for $200,000 at a $2 million evaluation. The powerplant generates $1,000,000 in profit annually, and Bob is paid $25,000 quarterly for his 10% ownership. After 5-years, the power plant has increased to a $4 million evaluation due to governmental tax cuts and carbon-credits for renewable energy. Bob decides this is a good time to liquidate his equity in the power plant, and sells his 10% ownership for $400,000 on an alternative token exchange. He was also paid $500,000 over the course of the 5-years as dividends from his ownership, giving him a 4.5x return on his investment.

When can I start trading my security tokens?

We anticipate that the tokens will be tradable immediately after purchase, although we encourage participants to hold onto their tokens as long as possible to maximize their investment.

What happens if mining bitcoin becomes un-economical?

Yes, we actually expect that the impact of climate change will increase the value of each renewable energy power plant. Governmental entities across the globe are becoming more aware of the impact climate change will have from an economical and societal perspective. Due to this, measures are currently be taken by governmental entities to increase investments in renewable energy infrastructure.
What we are presenting here is the first real opportunity to get rid of the negative stigma surrounding Bitcoin’s energy usage. If we are successful, we would have used Bitcoin’s high energy consuming “proof-of-work” algorithms as an opportunity to actually fight climate change. Our strategy is to:

Will the security token / power plants be influenced by climate change?
