2. Perspectives For Geothermal Energy In Europe
2017 by Ruggero Bertani
"Perspectives for Geothermal Energy in Europe" underscores the boundless potential of harnessing geothermal heat for energy transformation. Throughout history, natural geothermal sources, like thermal springs, have served as vital resources for heating, cooking, and bathing. In contemporary times, the applications have expanded to include electricity generation via binary cycle power plants, heat extraction using geothermal heat pumps, and facilitating industrial crop cultivation in greenhouses. This book provides insights into the current status of geothermal energy in European countries blessed with these natural resources. It also delves into the existing geothermal policies and regulations in Europe, examining their alignment with the EU Energy and Climate Framework. Ideal for students, academics, and professionals in fields such as energy studies, geology, electrical engineering, and environmental economics, this publication stands as the first comprehensive examination of the practical aspects of geothermal extraction and utilization in Europe.
