Employing Geothermal Energy: The Earth’s Thermal Gradient as a Viable Energy Source
Building upon the works of M. A. Al-Rashed and M. A. Al-Anzi, this study accentuates the transformative potential of geothermal energy. It draws attention to its near inexhaustibility, with the Earth’s crust releasing heat at a rate vastly outstripping global power production. Importantly, geotherma...

description | Building upon the works of M. A. Al-Rashed and M. A. Al-Anzi, this study accentuates the transformative potential of geothermal energy. It draws attention to its near inexhaustibility, with the Earth’s crust releasing heat at a rate vastly outstripping global power production. Importantly, geothermal energy offers continuous, 24/7 electricity generation, free from the inconsistencies of solar and wind energy. It’s particularly beneficial for remote regions, where geographical or logistical challenges make conventional power plants unfeasible. Geothermal power plants occupy minimal space and produce far less CO2 than fossil fuel-based plants. Additionally, they can yield by-products like boric acid, creating parallel industries. Despite these advantages, potential environmental risks linked to the release of heavy metals and gases must be managed effectively to fully harness geothermal energy’s potential. |
