They are demonstrating geothermal boreholes with plasma drills now. The plan is to do a 20km deep borehole, in just 100 days, next year.
If that is actually achievable, we can drill a borehole next to every single coal plant in the world, and run the turbine off of super critical geothermal steam... Basically forever.
