A New Frontier Beneath Our Feet
At KMT, we are creating direct access to magma – one of Earth’s most powerful and least understood resources.
This unique initiative brings together science, technology, and investment to open a new era of geothermal energy and subsurface exploration.
DIRECT ACCES TO
MAGMA
We are creating the world's first direct interface with Earth's molten interior - opening a new era for clean energy, planetary science, and the future of geothermal power.
By drilling near magma at Krafla, KMT is establishing the world's first superhot geothermal testbed - proving this energy source can work safely, efficiently, and at scale.
Why drill into magma?
The Krafla Magma Testbed (KMT) is the first project in history
designed to drill directly into magma.
What if...
Did you know...
…that s1,000,000,000 people live within 100 km of active volcanoes?
Imagine...
WHAT IF WE COULD ACCESS THE ENERGY BENEATH VOLCANOES?
By drilling near magma at Krafla, KMT is creating the world’s first superhot geothermal testbed -
proving that this energy can work safely, efficiently, and at scale.
Energy
Magma holds vast, untapped potential for clean, reliable power.
Science
Direct observation of magma transforms our understanding of Earth systems.
De-risk Future Projects
Reducing technical and financial uncertainty for
next-generation geothermal.
