As the global demand for sustainable energy intensifies, achieving economic growth without carbon emissions has become both a critical challenge and an opportunity. This study investigates the potential of five major clean energy sources-solar, wind, hydroelectric, nuclear, and geothermal...

This paper seeks to fill this knowledge gap by examining the relationships between economic factors, flexibility modelling and geothermal innovation as a nexus in East China. Energy and water are intensively influencing the production of food, which indicates the utmost significant role of the...

Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS) are promising for low-carbon energy generation, but finding suitable EGS sites is challenging due to the technical complexity, induced seismicity risk, and controversial public perception. This paper presents a novel methodology of Risk-Cost-Benefit Analysis...

The EU's geothermal energy sector, although small, has considerable potential to support the bloc's energy transition. This annual update report highlights the status of both power and direct heat applications, covering technology development, value chains, and markets. Despite being a...

Geothermal energy is both a clean and sustainable energy source that contributes to economic growth (GDP) and environmentally friendly, as it releases much less harmful greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions than fossil fuels. This study presents a novel perspective by examining the dynamic impact of...

This report highlights the socioeconomic contributions of the geothermal sector, including the potential opportunities and benefits that can be enhanced at national and local levels throughout geothermal projects' development and operation. The report was prepared using qualitative data from...

As the world moves with increasing urgency to mitigate climate change and catalyze energy transitions to net zero, understanding the governance mechanisms that will unlock barriers to energy transitions is of critical importance. This book examines how the clean energy regime complex-the...

"Jahrhundertaufgaben" erfordern langfristige strategische Ansätze. Photovoltaikfreiflächenanlagen (PVA) oder auch Windkraftanlagen können für ehemalige gewerbliche oder militärische Flächen eine Alternative sein, aber entsprechende Ansätze sind nicht ausreichend, und die finanziellen...

Proper management of geothermal data is essential to the long-term development of geothermal resources at economically attractive costs. Even after a particulargeothermal resource has come on stream, the data gathered in the process may be useful in the development of other projects-if they are...

Innovative technologies in the field of geothermal energy focus on three areas: (i) resource assessment, (ii) resource development, and (iii) resource utilisation and management for electricity, heat supply and mineral extraction (lithium). They include increased electric power system...

Social visions to replace fossil fuels with renewable energy sources have motivated unprecedented growth in global renewable energy manufacturing. Previous literature shows that people committed to realizing such visions have difficulties reconciling with the negative social-ecological impacts...

The affordability and availability of water and energy have a huge impact on food production. Research has shown that there exists a direct and indirect link between power production and clean water generation. Hence the inclusion/importance given to the energy-water-food (EWF) nexus in the...

Investment in deep geothermal heating (DGH) plants is hindered by the risks born by geological and market uncertainties. However, various flexibility options inherent to the development process, such as the option to abandon or defer, could partly mitigate these risks. To account for managerial...

Achieving global goals for access to energy and mitigation of climate change will require a quadrupling of present levels of solar photovoltaic (PV), a multiplication by nine of the wind power generation and a doubling of the geothermal power generation in the developing world by 2025. To reach...

Geothermal energy has a significant role to play in the global transition to renewable and low-carbon energy systems because of its ability to supply steady and flexible electricity particularly for baseload demand because of its cost competitiveness compared to fossil fuel energy options....

Türkiye has substantial geothermal potential, and the country's government is committed to exploiting it, both for economic reasons and to meet its obligations as a signatory of the Paris Agreement on Climate Change. Türkiye has more than 400 known geothermal fields in 63 different provinces....

The use of new energy sources, including geothermal energy, is expanding rapidly in the world, and this energy is a good alternative to fossil fuels. In the present study, a combined power generation system (combined instantaneous evaporation cycle with supercritical carbon dioxide recovery...

Highlights● A review of ages of granite emplacement is reported● Low temperature thermochronology as a new tool for geothermal exploration● Apatite fission track data reveal buried magmatic intrusions● The Mid-Tuscany Metamorphic Ridge is a promising exploration target

Advanced iron boride protective coatings on carbon steels were tested and evaluated, for the first time, in actual corrosion conditions in the geothermal Rittershoffen and Soultz-sous-Forets sites (France) with positive results. Moreover, large size boronized spools demonstrated high performance...

The working fluid in geothermal wells often contains naturally occurring CO2. In an aqueous environment, CO2 forms carbonic acid and subsequently reacts with the binding components of cement, resulting in the loss of strength and early failure. Well cement formulations containing hydroxyapatite...

CO2-Plume Geothermal (CPG) technologies are geothermal power systems that use geologically stored CO2 as the subsurface heat extraction fluid to generate renewable energy. CPG technologies can support variable wind and solar energy technologies by providing dispatchable power, while Flexible CPG...

This article examines how rural roads relate to differences in livelihood patterns, attitudes toward social change, and land disputes in Baringo, Kenya. Although their direct use is limited for many residents, roads have a highly differentiating impact. While some households orientate themselves...

Carbon dioxide (CO2) emission factors from Turkish geothermal plants have been measured in the 400 to 1,300 gram per kilowatt-hour (g per kWh) range, significantly higher than the reported global average (121 g per kWh). The good news is that despite these unusually high initial emission factors...
