Appropriate matching of energy supply with energy demand is one of the most formidable challenges facing humankind today and in the near future.
On the supply side, although fossil fuels do have the potential for satisfying energy demand for at least a few decades – especially in light of the recent massive introduction of shale gas in the international market, heavily relying upon such...

The first part of this presentation provides an overview of the deep and shallow geothermal market development and the prospective for the next decades.
The financial crisis has slowed down some of the development in geothermal electricity, and it is apparently a difficult time to attract the necessary investment. However, the investigation in possible projects is going on in more countries...

When the government of Germany boldly decided in September 2010 to initiate the *Energiewende* (Energy Transition), this was only six month before the Fukushima accident.
The target of this challenging endeavor is to reduce greenhouse gases, cut down on overall energy consumption and foster renewable energy generation. Legislation to that effect was passed in 2011, which saw an...
