Special Issue: Geothermal Energy: Deep Underground Science
Our research explores the growing significance of artificial intelligence (AI), particularly machine learning and deep learning, in the geothermal energy sector. We have identified an upward trend in AI applications from 2019 to 2022 and highlight its critical role in reservoir engineering, exploration, drilling, and production optimization.
Iceland is closing the circle on geothermal
Around a century ago, the country undertook the challenge of transitioning from fossil fuels to geothermal, and today Iceland gets more than 70% of all its energy from geothermal sources. According to Iceland''s National Energy Authority, that transition for home heating alone saves the country around 3.5% of its gross domestic product.
Geothermal Energy in the Philippines: A Sustainablity Powerhouse
Status of Geothermal Energy in the Philippines. The Philippines is the third-largest producer of geothermal energy globally, after the United States and Indonesia. The potential geothermal capacity in the Philippines is estimated to be around 4,064 megawatts (MW). Currently, more than 1,900 MW of this potential has been developed and is
The Hidden Energy Beneath Our Feet: 5 Fascinating Facts About
While geothermal only accounts for 0.4% of U.S. electricity currently, America still produces more geothermal power than any other country – nearly 4 gigawatts, enough to power 3 million homes! The world''s largest geothermal field, known as The Geysers, located in California, can produce 1.5 gigawatts via its collection of power plants.
Why geothermal could be key to clean energy
Caribbean electricity prices are among the highest in the world, due to the islands'' heavy reliance on imported, polluting diesel. The average cost of electricity is around four times higher than in rich nations such as the US.
Liberalisation of Trade in Renewable Energy and
This paper, the second in a series, examines the implications of liberalising trade in three forms of renewable energy: biodiesel, solar-thermal water heaters, and geothermal energy systems. Eliminating tariffs on renewable energy and associated...
Envisioning a geothermal future for the US
The U.S. is capable of increasing its production of geothermal energy twentyfold by 2050 through deployment of next-generation technologies, according to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). Exploiting new sites to harness energy would allow geothermal generation to grow from a current total capacity of roughly 3,700 MW to at least 90,000 MW in
Geothermal Energy
Geothermal energy is one of the most energy-efficient systems currently available, offering the following advantages: can heat and cool sheds; almost zero carbon emissions; highly scalable; may slash energy costs by between 50 and 70 per cent, and; base-load energy is not reliant on sunny skies or windy days.
