North Dakota is sitting on a hidden power source—one that never runs out. A new bill moving through the state legislature could unlock geothermal energy by repurposing old oil and gas wells, turning them into continuous sources of clean electricity. Supporters say it’s a win-win: reliable energy, economic growth, and a step toward making North Dakota an energy leader. But first, lawmakers must decide whether to invest in a study that could pave the way for geothermal’s future. Will they seize the opportunity?
SB 2360
