However, deep geothermal energy is currently harvested mainly from areas with very favorable geothermal conditions. As these areas are geographically limited, the use of geothermal energy in less favorable regions is essential for unleashing the full potential of geothermal energy, since they make up the majority of the total geothermal potential in Central Europe. Motivated by the growing interest in deep geothermal energy among, e.g., energy companies and communities, this text reviews the state of the art in deep geothermal energy with focus on direct heating in geothermally less favorable regions. It provides an overview of technologies used to generate heat from the deep underground and discusses main technical and non-technical risks associated with deep geothermal projects. The text addresses readers with an interest in geothermal energy but does not require a background in geoscience or engineering sciences. It is suitable as textbook for Geothermal Energy courses for undergraduate students from different disciplines. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Earth System Sciences,$x2191-5903 606 $aGeotechnical engineering 606 $aGeophysics 606 $aRenewable energy sources 606 $aGeology 606 $aGeotechnical Engineering and Applied Earth Sciences 606 $aGeophysics 606 $aRenewable Energy 606 $aGeology 615 0$aGeotechnical engineering. 615 0$aGeophysics. 615 0$aRenewable energy sources. 615 0$aGeology. 615 14$aGeotechnical Engineering and Applied Earth Sciences. 615 24$aGeophysics. 615 24$aRenewable Energy. 615 24$aGeology. 676 $a333.88094 700 $aFink$b Johanna$01223163 702 $aHeim$b Elisa 702 $aKlitzsch$b Norbert 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910564698103321 996 $aState of the Art in Deep Geothermal Energy in Europe$92837480 997 $aUNINA
