Moving toward environmental sustainability: Assessing the influence of geothermal power on carbon dioxide emissions

Mohd Alsaleh et al.

Summary: The study examines the impact of geothermal energy production on carbon dioxide emissions among EU27 countries from 1990 to 2021. Using the autoregressive-distributed lag (ARDL) model, the findings indicate that an increase in geothermal power output leads to a reduction in carbon dioxide emissions. Socioeconomic factors such as population density, economic growth, and fossil fuel use contribute to increased carbon dioxide emissions. The study suggests that EU13 emerging economies can achieve significant carbon dioxide emission reduction through geothermal energy growth compared to EU14 emerged economies. However, aging population density can also result in a significant reduction in carbon dioxide emissions among EU14 economies. Additionally, the study reveals that EU14 economies can experience a significant increase in carbon dioxide emissions through fossil fuel consumption and economic growth compared to EU13 economies. The three estimators used in the study confirm the validity of the projected calculations. The study recommends that EU27 countries prioritize geothermal growth to meet energy and environmental goals. Policymakers should focus on policies ensuring the security and sustainability of geothermal growth, ultimately reducing the reliance on fossil fuels and CO2 emissions in the future.

An economic cybernetic model for electricity market operation coupled with physical system dynamics*

Chenyu Wu et al.

Summary: With the emergence of competitive markets, real-time market clearing results are used to determine optimal power dispatch, which strengthens the coupling between market updates and physical response of generators and networks. Stability analysis for such coupled systems is necessary. Based on the primal-dual gradient method, an economic cybernetic model is established to characterize market operation and power system dynamics. The proposed dynamic model constructs a state space where market participants' actions are control signals and system states are treated as state variables. The transaction process aims to maximize social welfare and frequency regulation at the equilibrium point.

Heat source model for Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS) under different geological conditions in China

Wenjing Lin et al.

Summary: This paper analyzes regional variation patterns of mantle heat flow and crustal thermal states, constructs models of temperature fields, and discusses the heat source mechanism of Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS) in different zones. The results show that differences in the crustal thermal structure of different regions control their deep thermal conditions and EGS heat sources.

Geothermal Characteristics and Productivity Potential of a Super-Thick Shallow Granite-Type Enhanced Geothermal System: A Case Study in Wendeng Geothermal Field, China

Haiyang Jiang et al.

Summary: Super-thick shallow granites without a cap layer are widespread in the Wendeng geothermal field. To evaluate its productivity potential for an enhanced geothermal system (EGS), field tests, laboratory tests, and numerical simulations were conducted. Based on real geological and core data, the geothermal characteristics and deep rock mechanical properties were identified. A reservoir hydraulic fracturing model based on a discrete fracture network was then established, and thermal extraction simulations were carried out to assess the long-term productivity. It was found that different well layout patterns and operational parameters had different effects on the production performance of the EGS project.

Accelerating carbon neutrality could help China?s energy system align with below 1.5?C

Xueqing Ma et al.

Summary: In order to support the Paris Agreement's goal of limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees C, China aims to peak its CO2 emissions before 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality before 2060. This study examines the implications of different carbon neutrality scenarios for aligning China's energy system with the 1.5 degrees C target. The results show that accelerating carbon neutrality can help China's energy system align with the target, but it also poses challenges and costs in overcoming development inertia and restructuring the energy system.

The Chinese Carbon-Neutral Goal: Challenges and Prospects

Ning Zeng et al.

Summary: China has announced its climate goal to peak carbon emissions by 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality by 2060. However, the pathway to decarbonization is unclear and there are significant differences in achieving the carbon-neutral goal, particularly regarding non-fossil fuel energy sources. Near-term policies allowing for gradual transition and drastic changes after 2030 can eventually achieve the carbon-neutral goal.

Geothermal Accumulation Constrained by the Tectonic Transformation in the Gonghe Basin, Northeastern Tibetan Plateau

Xianchun Tang et al.

Summary: Recent advances in geothermal exploration in the Gonghe Basin have provided insights into the origin and emplacement of hot dry rock (HDR). Through integrating boundary faults distribution, springs and geothermal borehole data, and magnetotelluric data, it is proposed that the basin may have formed in a zone of slip dissipation between two major left-lateral strike-slip faults. The basin has experienced two-phase developments, leading to the formation of high-temperature and shallow-burial HDR in specific geothermal areas.

The impact of climate change on global energy use

Hongliang Zhang et al.

Summary: This paper presents a global analysis of the link between annual total energy use and temperature. Results show that rich and poor countries exhibit differential response functions to temperature changes for annual total energy use. Unmitigated climate change is projected to increase global total energy use by 24.0% on average. The impacts of future global warming on total energy use vary spatially, with low-income countries facing significant increases and cooler countries experiencing reductions. Policy-makers need to consider socioeconomic factors and climate uncertainty when projecting future climate change impacts on global energy use.

A novel multivariate grey model of energy consumption under carbon trading background and its application

Huiming Duan et al.

Summary: This paper studies the relationship among energy consumption, carbon emissions, economic growth, and carbon trading price, and constructs a grey prediction model of energy consumption driven by carbon trading. The model is applied to energy consumption data in China, and experimental results show that it outperforms existing grey models. The predicted increase in coal energy consumption in China in 2025 provides an important reference for energy structure adjustment and environmental policymaking.

Challenges and opportunities for carbon neutrality in China

Zhu Liu et al.

Summary: China has made significant reductions in CO2 emissions, achieving objectives outlined in Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions and Nationally Determined Contributions. However, China still faces challenges in reaching peak CO2 emissions before 2030 and achieving carbon neutrality before 2060. Achieving these goals will require increasing non-fossil energy share, deploying negative-emission technologies, promoting low-carbon development regionally, and establishing a nationwide 'green market'.
