Air Force partners with startup to tap virtually limitless energy power source
Finding a renewable solution that doesn’t rely on weather conditions could herald the end of harmful energy sources.

Eavor has now received a contract for the technology — which it has “flawlessly” demonstrated at a facility in Alberta, Canada, according to Recharge — from the U.S. Department of Defense.
