Event Details
Geothermal energy, created during the formation of the planet, is heat that comes from the rocks and fluids under the surface of the earth. Wells reach more than a mile underground to access steam and hot water reservoirs which then drive turbines.
The United States is the largest producer of geothermal energy in the world, according to Power Technology. A free online University of Illinois Extension webinar will examine the decarbonization of the energy section from commercial and residential heating.
If you will need an accommodation in order to participate, email Nancy Esarey Ouedraogo at esarey@illinois.edu. Early requests are strongly encouraged to allow sufficient time to meet your access needs.
