A new open-source software, with an easy-to-use graphical user interface, is applied to assess the deep geothermal potential of the Reus-Valls sedimentary basin in Spain. Then, a high-temperature borehole thermal energy storage facility at Linköping, Sweden, is described to shift excess heat generated from a waste incineration plant during the summer to the winter season. Next, a plastic plate heat exchanger was geometrically and thermodynamically modeled, optimized, and applied to a direct geothermal heating system for a building in Southern Italy. In the last European study, in Croatia, an unconventional hydrocarbon gas reservoir is analyzed (geothermal gradient of 49°C/km), in the geothermal field Velika Ciglena. Going down to Africa, the assessment of the geothermal resources in the Asal Rift (Djibouti) through multiphase flow and heat transfer simulations is presented. Moving to Asia, in the Chinese province of Guangdong, magnetotelluric profiles are used to interpret the crust and upper mantle structure and its geothermal implications. Then, in the remote Canadian Northern regions, uncertainty and risk evaluation of deep geothermal energy resources (> 4 km) for heat production and electricity generation are described. Finally, a literature review provides a comparison of geothermal projects in unconventional reservoirs in United Kingdom (Cornubian Batholith), Canada (Williston Sedimentary Basin), and Italy (Campi Flegrei Caldera). 606 $aTechnology: general issues$2bicssc 606 $aHistory of engineering & technology$2bicssc 606 $aEnvironmental science, engineering & technology$2bicssc 610 $ageothermal energy 610 $ageothermal gradient 610 $apaleoclimate 610 $anumerical model 610 $aMonte Carlomethod 610 $aheat-in-place 610 $atheoretical potential 610 $atechnical potential 610 $apetrothermal system 610 $aNunavik 610 $ahydrothermal system 610 $aelectrical conductivity 610 $amultiphase flow 610 $anumerical modeling 610 $anormal fault 610 $aheat source 610 $aAsal Rift 610 $amagnetotellurics 610 $a2D inversion 610 $acrust-upper mantle structure 610 $aLate Mesozoic granite 610 $aGuangdong Province 610 $aunconventional geothermal resources 610 $ageothermal drilling 610 $acommunities 610 $acaldera 610 $ahydrocarbon gas 610 $aunconventional reservoirs 610 $adrilling 610 $aNeogene 610 $aCroatia 610 $amethodology 610 $acrystalline bedrock 610 $aenergy storage 610 $aboreholes 610 $alogging 610 $athermal properties 610 $amagnetic measurements 610 $aVLF 610 $adrone photogrammetry 610 $adirect heating system 610 $aplastic plate heat exchanger 610 $aexergoeconomic analysis 610 $a  615 7$aTechnology: general issues 615 7$aHistory of engineering & technology 615 7$aEnvironmental science, engineering & technology 700 $aSomma$b Renato$4edt$01319286 702 $aBlessent$b Daniela$4edt 702 $aSomma$b Renato$4oth 702 $aBlessent$b Daniela$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910619465403321 996 $aNew Perspectives on Geothermal Energy Exploration and Evaluation of Geothermal Potential$93033700 997 $aUNINA
