GEOTHERMICA 2009
First, second and third generation geothermal energy (EGS - Enhanced Geothermal Systems) represents a promising industry that, together with other renewable sources, can provide the energy needed to satisfy world electricity, heating and air-conditioning demand, without emitting greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.
Ground-source heat pumps, moreover, are a practical and ready-available solution for low-demand users, with significant advantages in terms of energy saving, and eligible for incentives under national and local legislation.
