SMR's right. I hear Westinghouse is developing (or have developed) them. This would great for humanity going forward if these fucking politicians really think things through before coming up with a shit load of regulations ( which basically drives up the cost)
In the same way hydro is regional. I don't see why that's a knock on the technology. A lot of people live in geologically active areas and many of those are suitable for geothermal power.
Also, as with hydro, we might see geothermal plants built in remote areas for the sole purpose of Bitcoin mining.
Geothermal is basically infinite.
With a simple steam mechanism you can harvest free energy near volcanos with zero risk.. its super cheap and clean..
You just need a vulcano. Obviously due to our human nature we can’t provide free energy or give it to places where theres no vulcanos.. nuclear is fine, but super costly and risky
I don't really understand why geothermal hasn't gotten more adoption. Maybe if there weren't so many subsidies going towards oil, wind, ans solar, we'd see more geothermal.
I'm curious why no one is mentioning that the graph is about oil subsidies. I'm all for using whatever amount of oil is genuinely demanded on the open market, but if those figures are correct then current oil production is coming with a $7 trillion dead weight loss.
I'd love to see how adoption of other energy technologies would change absent those subsidies.
Amen. Mother earth stores it for us like a battery. Fuck the climate hysterics
.... and the new Nuclear tech. This will be the core of the grids.

But our commies never would regulate something good for the people to death, would they?
And is just fine... And oil is never ending...
view on www.youtube.comGeorge Carlin... fucking legend...
Never gets old.. Gotta love this man..
New Nuclesr tech!
The world is, and has been for while, running on oil. But these days are over. Most of us will witness the end of oil in our lifetime.
In less than 10 years, most vehicles sold will be electric, while renewables share will raise drastically.
In the near future (10-20 years), tomorrow's world will run on nuclear, solar and hydro.
In a more distant future (>25 years), it will probably start to run on nuclear fusion and space-based solar power (SSP).
I don't know. My cristal balls aren't working well those days.
We really could reduce it with geothermal.. but humans keep insisting on the worst solutions.. go figure
Geothermal? Depends on the region... i am all in for new Nuclear tech

You don't need a volcano, necessarily, pretty much anywhere with hot springs will do.
Sounds even better then

the masters cant allow you to have free/cheap energy..
How I understand the new generation of n plants solves these problems.
Have to look into that.. Yet, after fukushima one wonders.. but i guess theres safer places
For sure...

More Co2 = more plants
Oil is one asset that can be hardly let go of
I love it.
Crude oil is as natural as yellow cake uranium and di-hydrogen oxide.
You don't want to present it at Cop28 or however they call this bs summit?
Give it time, data is the new oil
But Greta said time is running out...
