Mantle Energy: Funding, Investors & Team (Oct 2026)

Mantle Energy develops activated geothermal technology that converts depleted and end-of-life wells into sources of low-carbon baseload power. The company generates heat underground through controlled combustion and uses it to reach geothermal-grade temperatures without relying on volcanic resources. Its systems capture that underground heat and convert it into grid-ready electricity while using existing well infrastructure. Mantle Energy’s process is designed to store carbon underground as part of the operation, combining power generation with carbon sequestration. The technology targets owners and operators of oil and gas wells seeking to create new value from stranded assets and reduce emissions. It focuses on scalable geothermal and oil and gas technology applications for energy producers and grid operators.

About FundedIQ's Mantle Energy Funding Data

FundedIQ tracks announced funding rounds and refreshes this profile every week. Round dates, stages and amounts are normalised to a single format, converted to US dollars, and de-duplicated: two records of the same round announced days apart are merged, and two genuinely different rounds are kept apart on the amounts they disclose. Amounts shown are the disclosed figures only — a round announced without a number is listed and excluded from the total rather than estimated.

Employee counts are reported bands, not exact headcounts. Founder and executive names carry the job title on record. Anything we do not hold for Mantle Energy is left off this page rather than filled in.
