Geothermal energy storage (GES) is a process that captures heat from the Earth and stores it for later use. Geothermal energy has huge potential—from heating and cooling enabled by constant underground temperatures just tens of feet deep, to reliable and flexible electricity generation from heat found. . A Stanford study finds that adding geothermal power cuts wind, solar, and battery capacity requirements while keeping energy costs low. Enhanced geothermal systems could provide constant, low-cost, clean electricity while reducing land use and infrastructure needs in a global renewable energy. .
