Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS) EGS technology creates geothermal resources by injecting water into hot rock formations to create or expand fractures, allowing the water to circulate and transfer heat. Renewable resource; constant and reliable energy supply Low environmental impact EGS allows for geothermal power generation in areas where it was previously unavailable due to a lack of natural water or permeability. Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) Systems Use mirrors or lenses to concentrate a large area of sunlight onto a small area. Focus sunlight to heat aa fluid, which is used to drive a heat engine (usually a steam turbine) connected to an electrical power generator. Efficient energy production in hot climate. Water conservation Reduce reliance on fossil fuels CSP is suitable to arid and harsh regions; effective in areas with high direct normal irradiance (DNI) Vertical Axis Wind Turbines A type of wind turbine; main rotor shaft is set vertical Perpendicular to the ground and transverse to the wind direction. Can capture wind from all direction Have a smaller footprint, can be installed close together Produce less noise Essential components is located near the ground, safer to maintenance compare to other wind turbines.
