Geothermal Energy Storage

Geothermal energy storage uses the Earth's natural heat to store excess energy or to release energy when needed. It involves injecting heat into underground rocks or extracting heat from them, acting like a large thermal battery. When there's surplus energy, it is stored underground; when demand rises, the stored heat is brought back to generate electricity or provide heating. This method leverages the Earth's stable temperatures, offering a reliable, renewable way to balance energy supply and demand without relying on fossil fuels. It's an innovative approach to making renewable energy more consistent and efficient.
