EarthGrid is making history. We built a Tunnel Boring Robot that uses plasma technology to enable continuous excavation through the hardest rock out there. This will be the world's first plasma tunnel. Watch the full video here👇 youtube.com/watch?v=EcHK1-…

Plasma. Powers. Progress. Stay tuned.

We are deeply saddened by the magnitude of destruction and displacement being left behind in Los Angeles by the ongoing wildfires. EarthGrid is actively looking for ways to help. Our team is ready to deploy our Plasma Excavation System to aid in removing rock, concrete, and other hard debris from the affected areas. Our thoughts remain with those affected; We will be ready to help rebuild infrastructure when the time comes.

It’s been a while since I’ve given any updates for what we’ve been up to at @earthgrid_io, but here’s a big one! It took a bit longer than expected vs our original plans, but after a few weeks of integration chaos and troubleshooting our new and improved 2x torch system finally destroying rock. There’s a lot going on at EarthGrid right now and I hope to have more progress updates soon. For now, enjoy the rock destruction glamor shots!
