<p>Eden is a leader in sustainable natural resource recovery. We break rocks with electricity to maximize subsurface permeability. We believe that a more sustainable approach to natural resource recovery is critical to creating a carbon-neutral future. By using high-voltage electricity and proprietary modeling and reservoir characterization techniques, we can achieve precise fracture permeability enhancement, while preventing the high-water consumption and environmental risks associated with traditional hydraulic fracturing operations. With backing from public and private institutions, our next-generation rock permeability enhancement technology is being demonstrated in multiple geologies across the world. We&rsquo;re working with industry leaders in geothermal energy, geologic hydrogen, carbon storage, and mining to redefine how we recover Earth&rsquo;s natural resources.
