The potential of geothermal energy combined with carbon capture and storage in Trinidad and Tobago / Tzar George... [et.al.]

Even without volcanic formations, Trinidad and Tobago can harness geothermal energy from depleted oil reservoirs with the additional benefit of storing Carbon Dioxide (CO2) in them. This paper evaluates the combination of CCS technology with geothermal energy production utilizing CO2 as the working...
