The geothermal energy potential beneath our feet is vast. This tremendous resource amounts to 50,000 times the energy of all oil and gas resources in the world. Geothermal energy is a clean and ever-renewable source of energy representing a promising solution for the world, as the concern over global warming, pollution, and the unpredictable availability of fossil fuels looms in the near future. This course covers the basics of today's geothermal energy capabilities and technologies, as well as policies and potential barriers to geothermal resource development.
