This book highlights the importance of geothermal energy by studying its potential either alone or in combination with solar energy, focusing on its industrial application. Its starting point is to identify in a thorough and precise manner the barriers that hinder the implementation of geothermal energy in Spain and the European Union and the measures to be taken to achieve its diffusion and regular use. Next, the book looks at how geothermal energy could contribute to this sector and to the desalination industry in particular, analysing a specific case in the south of Spain and extrapolating…mehr

Produktbeschreibung
This book highlights the importance of geothermal energy by studying its potential either alone or in combination with solar energy, focusing on its industrial application. Its starting point is to identify in a thorough and precise manner the barriers that hinder the implementation of geothermal energy in Spain and the European Union and the measures to be taken to achieve its diffusion and regular use.
Next, the book looks at how geothermal energy could contribute to this sector and to the desalination industry in particular, analysing a specific case in the south of Spain and extrapolating its results to a set of existing desalination plants in the Spanish Mediterranean with really interesting results in terms of economic amortisation and CO2 emissions avoided to the atmosphere.

Beyond the desalination industry, this work demonstrates that almost 85% of the industrial processes of all industry in Spain can be carried out with very low, low and medium temperature geothermal resources and even applies its results to a set of existing solar plants, comparing in economic terms the results already obtained with those that would have been obtained if geothermal energy had been applied.

Presentation of energy-efficient and renewable energy systems in leading international engineering and architectural firms. Presented to leader installers/distributors in the HVAC sector and related areas. Before 2008, held various positions in different companies: Senior consultant in Alfa consulting, Manager for the electrical, energy and environmental department in SOCOTEC, sales engineer in GENERAL ELECTRIC Consumer& Industrial Dr. Antonio Colmenar-Santos (Ph.D.) is an Industrial Engineering. Nowadays, a senior lecturer in the field of electrical engineering at the Department of Electrical, Electronic and Control Engineering at UNED; from June 2014, he obtained a favourable resolution from the National Agency for Quality Assessment and Accreditation of Spain (ANECA by its acronym in Spanish) to be habilitated as a full professor. He has worked for AECI-ICI as a high qualified consultant at the INTECNA project (Nicaragua). He has been part of the Spanish section of the International Solar Energy Society (ISES) and of the Association for the Advancement of Computing in Education (AACE), working in the different projects relatedto renewable energies and multimedia systems applied to teaching. Stanford's "World's Top 2% Scientists", according to the ranking of Stanford University, would be among the two percent of the most cited scientists for the year 2019 among the more than 8 million active researchers worldwide (latest published data). And together with only six other UNED professors, he would occupy the central position among them. Dr. Rosales-Asensio (Ph.D.) is an industrial engineer with postgraduate degrees in electrical engineering, business administration, and quality, health, safety and environment management systems. Currently, he is an associate professor at the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. He has also worked as a plant engineer for a company that focuses on the design, development and manufacture of waste-heat-recovery technology for large reciprocating engines; and as a project manager in a world-leading research centre.
