Also covers #GeothermalHeat from volcanoes as well as #aerosols, which reflect solar radiation

Ocean blogs from ENSO, also has an effect and particularly interesting is the effect on #oceans as regards to #Geothermal I had warned about for years

How #HongKong was affected ..

An important discussion. Stability is critical, but long-term solutions should focus on true net zero sources. Geothermal provides continuous, carbon-free baseload power and should be part of the conversation. #EnergyTransition #GeothermalHeat

This project will develop an openly accessibly web-based platform which encapsulates publicly available geothermal data and has capabilities to interrogate and screen information to illustrate the technically viable opportunities for geothermal projects in the UK. This project will also include the incorporation of work done on the levelized cost of heat for geothermal by Arup, enabling the techno-economic viability in a number of geological settings to be demonstrated. The platform, commissioned with this project, will be a public facing platform. The platform will be used by policy makers, local authorities, scientists, developers and the general public to assess at pre-feasibility stage the potential for geothermal energy in their local area.
