Geothermal Energy and the Future of Baseload Renewable Power
Dr. John O. Owolabi
Solar and wind are variable. The grid of the future also needs clean power that runs day and night, and geothermal energy offers exactly that. Beneath the Surface makes the engineering and economic case for geothermal as a baseload renewable, and it uses geothermal as a case study for systematic thermodynamic analysis, second-law performance evaluation, and techno-economic modeling. Written by an engineer whose doctoral research produced a validated techno-economic and exergy framework for hybrid geothermal energy storage, the book examines the resource, conversion technologies, project risk, and the cost and finance questions that decide whether projects get built. Rigorous yet readable, it serves engineering students, researchers, developers, utilities, and policymakers seeking firm, low-carbon power, and it shows why the ground beneath us may hold one of the most underused answers to the energy transition.
