John Lund: focus first on conventional geothermal

written by: lxrichter

John Lund
In a recent interview, John Lund talks about that one should not neglect traditional geothermal development and gives his insight into many issues of current geothermal energy development.

In a recent interview, John Lund “talks about that one should not neglect traditional geothermal development. In fact, many things were developed traditionally first and then you can make the next step – to go to more risky and deeper resource. I think we cannot forget traditional power generation and we should not refuse traditional geothermal approach. EGS is really long-term run.”

John Lund is the co-founder and director of the Geo-Heat Center at the Oregon Institute of Technology (OIT) in US and former president of the Geothermal Resources Council and the International Geothermal Association.”

In this lengthy interview, he also discusses the position of geothermal energy among other renewable energy sources, what should be done in order to make geothermal energy more acceptable and – quite interestingly – his view on EGS.
