There is a WILD asterisk here though. No place on earth has done Geothermal at the scale would need to at the levels they are describing, and we’re currently the largest producer of Geothermal energy, shockingly.
It also has ecological drawbacks just like everything else. I believe Iceland has the sanest capture system right now where it not only provides power, but hot water heating, and mineral reclamation. If we could these small capture systems that can be deployed outside of large cities just to cut natural gas usage, that would be huge.
However, not all geotherm is equal.
A CA startup NovelTherm highlights ‘shallow well’ geothermal, which saves on depth drilling requiring only 180F working medium to create 250KV per stackable unit.
Polar nights has debuted tech in Finland have shown the efficacy of thermal battery for sun and wind renewables.
There is no REAL reasons any more not to transition - and quick.
Nearly every detraction is debunked as propaganda from OIL industry zealots.
The rest is just willfull ignorance and stubborn pride.
Two things that can kill quicker than hyperthermia!
