RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Update EarthGridAnd from the job description:
Our plasma Tunnel Boring Robot (TBR) uses no fossil fuels (electricity & air are the only inputs), lines the tunnel with concrete/shotcrete that absorbs CO2 from the air (carbon-negative), runs on solar/wind power, uses little to no water in the process, and uses no chemicals, lubricants, or drilling mud, keeping our groundwater free of toxic contaminants. And:
Role - What you’ll do
At EarthGrid, we are at the forefront of innovation, developing a Tunnel Boring Robot (TBR) equipped with high-temperature plasma torches. It’ll be your responsibility to bring the machine online and keep it running. You’ll be our primary controls engineer for integrating the machine, building controls, automating current manual operations, building out HMIs, and troubleshooting issues. This includes our industrial processes (pumps, piping, compressors), our actuators and advancing mechanisms, and any other controls related items. You’ll play a critical role in bringing our new machines online, keep existing machines operational, and improve those machines so they stay operational. You’ll work closely with the entire engineering team and fabrication team in the course of your responsibilities.

And note this from the recent NR: This joint venture marks a major milestone for EarthGrid in its journey to bring cutting-edge plasma-powered tunnel boring technology to fruition. Its partner – EnerTech – is owned by the National Technology Enterprises Company (NTEC), a fully-owned subsidiary of Kuwait Investment Authority (KIA), the sovereign wealth fund of Kuwait. As global providers of plasma expertise and technology, PyroGenesis is excited by continued innovations in the use of plasma, especially when stemming from client initiatives. And:
“PyroGenesis have been great supporters of our plan, both from a strategic and engineering perspective, as we readied the technology and financial approach over the past year,” EarthGrid founder Troy Helming said. “Having world-class plasma experts like PyroGenesis embracing our initiative and committing to us as a supplier means a great deal to us and our investors and we look forward to a prosperous long-term working relationship with Peter and his team at PyroGenesis.”
