Despite Facing Numerous Challenges, Geothermal Holds Promise in Energy Transition
Geothermal energy has the potential to provide plenty of reliable renewable energy, but providers will have to overcome several significant challenges. Solar and wind have emerged as the world's main clean-energy alternatives, and countries are investing tens of billions of dollars in developing these two energy sources. Despite being somewhat overlooked amids the focus on wind and solar, geothermal can also deliver clean and reliable energy. However, geothermal energy is often limited by geographical constraints and high costs, making it difficult for utilities to tap into the massive energy source. Solar and wind are intermittent in nature, but geothermal energy…
