Geothermal Energy: Delivering on the Global Potential
Geothermal energy has been harnessed for recreational uses for millennia, but only for electricity generation for a little over a century. Although geothermal is unique amongst renewables for its baseload and renewable heat provision capabilities, uptake continues to lag far behind that of solar and wind. This is mainly attributable to (i) uncertainties over resource availability in poorly-expl...
متن کاملHeat extraction of novel underground well pattern systems for geothermal energy exploitation
The current Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS) with a fractured reservoir undergoes several practical issues, such as scaling in the wellbore, the mass flow loss into the reservoir, and the challenge in designing the placement of production wells. In this paper, novel underground well pattern systems were proposed for geothermal energy exploitation. A numerical model of two kinds well pattern sy...
متن کاملGeothermal energy
— Geothermal technologies use renewable energy resources to generate electricity and direct use of heat while producing very low levels of greenhousegas (GHG) emissions. Geothermal energy is the thermal energy stored in the underground, including any contained fluid, which is available for extraction and conversion into energy products. Electricity generation, which nowadays produces 73.7TWh (1...
متن کاملChallenges for Geothermal Energy Utilisation
The Queensland Government recently awarded A$15 million to the University of Queensland to establish a new “hot rocks” research and development centre, called the Queensland Geothermal Energy Centre of Excellence. The vision for the Centre is to provide urgent, forward looking research, development and support for establishment of geothermal energy as a clean energy option through a program of ...
متن کاملExploitation and Utilization of Oilfield Geothermal Resources in China
Geothermal energy is a clean, green renewable resource, which can be utilized for power generation, heating, cooling, and could effectively replace oil, gas, and coal. In recent years, oil companies have put more efforts into exploiting and utilizing geothermal energy with advanced technologies for heat-tracing oil gathering and transportation, central heating, etc., which has not only reduced ...
