Harvard University Geothermal Energy Program

Harvard University's Geothermal Energy Program explores sustainable energy sources by studying Earth's natural heat. The program aims to improve techniques for harnessing geothermal energy—heat stored beneath the Earth's surface—to generate electricity and provide heating solutions. Through interdisciplinary research, including geology, engineering, and environmental science, it seeks to develop efficient, environmentally friendly geothermal systems that can reduce reliance on fossil fuels and contribute to global energy sustainability. The program also examines the potential environmental impacts and technological challenges to advance geothermal energy deployment on a broader scale.
