Chevron invests in Swedish geothermal firm

The investment in Baseload Capital underpins the oil and gas giant’s ambition to expand its clean energy offering

The businesses will plan potential pilot projects to test new technologies.

The move follows the oil and gas giant’s decision to increase its focus on geothermal and low carbon offerings.

Chevron’s Vice President, Innovation and President of Technology Ventures Barbara Burger said: “Chevron’s investments in geothermal power reflect our ongoing focus on helping to advance the world’s transition to a lower-carbon future.”
