Extending beyond power plants using geothermal and ocean energy, coverage includes hot dry rock systems, geothermal conditioning, solar ponds, osmotic power, dry air, and potential future deep sea hydrothermal sources. Some technologies have reached the prototype stage, some not even that, but where much work has been invested, it is important to provide a complete picture if only to prevent others from following a dead-end path. For geothermal power plants, the greatest challenge remains the geothermal resource itself. Power conversion is the least uncertain part of a geothermal project, as it consists of a straightforward engineering design with work executed by experienced manufacturers, engineering firms, and contractors. The issues associated with integrating large amounts of ocean energy into the overall supply are also explored. Collecting more than 20 new articles and updated entries, all peer reviewed, this volume in the Encyclopedia of Sustainability Science and Technology, Second Edition, provides an authoritative introduction from exploration techniques to conversion systems for a wide range of locally available energy sources. This comprehensive reference is suitable for those just entering these fields, but also offers new insights for advanced researchers, industry experts, and decision makers. 000838710 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed April 23, 2018). 000838710 650_0 $$aGeothermal resources. 000838710 650_0 $$aGeothermal power plants. 000838710 7001_ $$aBronicki, Lucien Y.$$eeditor. 000838710 830_0 $$aEncyclopedia of sustainability science and technology series. 000838710 852__ $$bebk 000838710 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-1-4939-7510-5$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000838710 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:838710$$pGLOBAL_SET 000838710 980__ $$aEBOOK 000838710 980__ $$aBIB 000838710 982__ $$aEbook 000838710 983__ $$aOnline 000838710 994__ $$a92$$bISE
