About Us

Advancing geothermal energy through state policy wins

InnerSpace Action transforms Project InnerSpace’s research and momentum into direct legislative and regulatory wins that scale geothermal electricity, industrial heat, building heating and cooling, and thermal energy networks.

Two organizations, one mission

Project InnerSpace is a 501c3

Project InnerSpace is a research nonprofit dedicated to removing the major barriers standing in the way of exponential global growth of geothermal energy.

InnerSpace Action is a 501c4

InnerSpace Action is a partner organization created to transform that research into direct legislative and regulatory wins for geothermal electricity, industrial heat, building heating and cooling, and thermal energy networks.

The foundation Project InnerSpace built
Before next-generation geothermal entered mainstream energy conversations, Project InnerSpace was hard at work, building the foundation for its exponential global growth. Project InnerSpace launched a movement to convene the first cross-sector communities of oil and gas engineers, startups, and policymakers to prove that the heat beneath our feet could power the modern economy.
