Tuesday, September 15, 2020. 12:00 PM. Webinar: The Future of Geothermal Energy. Todd Cowen, Cornell University and Karen Palmer, Resources for the Future. Sponsored by Resources for the Future. Register here.

Addressing climate change—particularly at reasonable cost—will require advancements in a range of energy-related technologies. The Advanced Energy Technologies Series accompanies the work RFF researchers are undertaking to understand and examine the cost trajectories and future deployment potential of these technologies. Join us on Tuesday, September 15, for a discussion on the uses of geothermal energy/enhanced geothermal systems in both direct heating and electricity generation.

Geothermal energy expert and Cornell University professor Todd Cowen will delve into the state of geothermal technology, the challenges that currently exist, and recent policy drivers impacting geothermal energy. RFF Senior Fellow and Future of Power Initiative Director Karen Palmer will then moderate a Q&A session.
