Posted by Greener Tomorrow on October 27th, 2011
The United States has a huge potential of energy in the ground. Geothermal power has the potential to generate roughly 3 million megawatts of power. This energy can be harnessed by the latest enhanced geothermal drilling methods. This new method gives us 10 times the installed capacity of the coal-fired power plants in whole the nation.
Enhanced Geothermal Systems could become important in low-carbon economy
