Beyond the volatile up-and-down swings in energy prices immediately following the onset of the Ukraine war, concerns emerged that the incursion could have an unbalancing effect on world markets for years to come. </p></div></div><a class='show-more'>Show more</a> </div> <meta itemprop="inLanguage" content="English"> <span style="display: none;" itemprop="publisher" itemscope="" itemtype="https://schema.org/Organization"> <span itemprop="name">American Association of Petroleum Geologists (AAPG)</span> <meta itemprop="logo" content="https://img.aapg.org/Portals/0/images/_site/AAPG-logo-footer.png"> </span> <div class="morelink">Added on <span itemprop="datePublished" class="schema">01 April, 2022</span></div> </div>  <div class="list-with-images explorer-articles dnnClear" itemscope="" itemtype="http://schema.org/Article">  <div class="litImage Explorer Division Column EMD Alt Energies Alternative Resources Climate Change Coal Environmental Ethics Member Renewable Energy Student Sustainable Development " style="position: relative;"> <a href='https://www.aapg.org/publications/news/explorer/column/articleid/62462' > <div class="image-overlay "></div> <noscript data-slimmage>  <img itemprop="image" class=" lazy " data-original="/Portals/0/PackFlashItemImages/WebReady/birdwell-justin-oct2021.jpg?width=200&height=200&mode=crop&anchor=middlecenter&encoder=freeimage&progressive=true&quality=90&scale=both&bgcolor=ffffff" src="/portals/0/PackFlashItemImages/WebReady/birdwell-justin-oct2021.jpg?width=200&height=200&mode=crop&anchor=middlecenter&encoder=freeimage&progressive=true&quality=90&scale=both&bgcolor=ffffff" alt="AAPG"> </noscript> </a> </div> <div class="text Explorer Division Column EMD Alt Energies Alternative Resources Climate Change Coal Environmental Ethics Member Renewable Energy Student Sustainable Development " id="pfid_62462"> <div class="author content-type" style="margin-bottom: 0px;"> <span class="content-type">Explorer Division Column EMD</span> <span itemprop="author">By Justin Birdwell</span> </div> <div class="h5" itemprop="headline"> <a itemprop="url" href='https://www.aapg.org/publications/news/explorer/column/articleid/62462' >Complexities of the Energy Transition</a> </div>  <div class="show-more-snippet fade"><div class="summary" itemprop="description"><p>Many members of the Energy Minerals Division are researching or working to develop non-fossil energy resources, including geothermal, critical and nuclear minerals, and some “colors” of hydrogen, all in service to human civilization’s ongoing energy transition. Over the years, there has been a variety of reasons given for why the current transition is necessary. These are very real and important concerns, but what often gets left out of the public discourse on the energy transition is how complex and disruptive it will be, especially if we’re going to meet any of the ambitious goals set for this century. </p></div></div><a class='show-more'>Show more</a> </div> <meta itemprop="inLanguage" content="English"> <span style="display: none;" itemprop="publisher" itemscope="" itemtype="https://schema.org/Organization"> <span itemprop="name">American Association of Petroleum Geologists (AAPG)</span> <meta itemprop="logo" content="https://img.aapg.org/Portals/0/images/_site/AAPG-logo-footer.png"> </span> <div class="morelink">Added on <span itemprop="datePublished" class="schema">01 February, 2022</span></div> </div>  <div class="list-with-images explorer-articles dnnClear" itemscope="" itemtype="http://schema.org/Article">  <div class="litImage Explorer Emphasis Article 1plus4 Rotation Alternative Resources Basin Modeling Basin Modeling and Geochemistry Coal Maturation Member Migration Renewable Energy Solar Energy Sustainable Development Thermal History Wind Energy " style="position: relative;"> <a href='https://www.aapg.org/publications/news/explorer/emphasis/articleid/61811/battery-revolution-renewable-energy-drives-critical-minerals-demand' > <div class="image-overlay "></div> <noscript data-slimmage>  <img itemprop="image" class=" lazy " data-original="/Portals/0/PackFlashItemImages/WebReady/battey-revolution-renewable-energy-hero.jpg?width=200&height=200&mode=crop&anchor=middlecenter&encoder=freeimage&progressive=true&quality=90&scale=both&bgcolor=ffffff" src="/portals/0/PackFlashItemImages/WebReady/battey-revolution-renewable-energy-hero.jpg?width=200&height=200&mode=crop&anchor=middlecenter&encoder=freeimage&progressive=true&quality=90&scale=both&bgcolor=ffffff" alt="AAPG"> </noscript> </a> </div> <div class="text Explorer Emphasis Article 1plus4 Rotation Alternative Resources Basin Modeling Basin Modeling and Geochemistry Coal Maturation Member Migration Renewable Energy Solar Energy Sustainable Development Thermal History Wind Energy " id="pfid_61811"> <div class="author content-type" style="margin-bottom: 0px;"> <span class="content-type">Explorer Emphasis Article</span> <span itemprop="author">By Heather Saucier</span> </div> <div class="h5" itemprop="headline"> <a itemprop="url" href='https://www.aapg.org/publications/news/explorer/emphasis/articleid/61811/battery-revolution-renewable-energy-drives-critical-minerals-demand' >Battery Revolution, Renewable Energy Drives Critical Minerals Demand</a> </div>  <div class="show-more-snippet fade"><div class="summary" itemprop="description"><p>As the United States and other developed countries embrace the prospect of transitioning to renewable energy, the need for critical minerals is skyrocketing. Solar plants, wind farms and electric vehicles require more minerals to build than their fossil fuel-based counterparts. For example, a typical electric car requires six times the mineral inputs of a conventional car, and an onshore wind plant requires nine times more mineral resources than a gas-fired plant, according to the International Energy Agency. Addressing the exploding need for critical minerals and how petroleum geoscientists can lead such efforts, members of AAPG’s Energy Minerals Division came together to discuss the future of critical minerals at the International Meeting for Applied Geoscience and Energy conference in Denver.</p></div></div><a class='show-more'>Show more</a> </div> <meta itemprop="inLanguage" content="English">

This subject has been on his mind of late, for he has spent the last two years studying those who are, as he puts it, suffering from “energy poverty.” Some 2.5 billion people worldwide live in some form of energy poverty today. “Access to secure energy,” Tinker said, “impacts all other major humanitarian issues, including hunger, shelter, clean water, education, healthcare, human migration, empowerment of women, and more.

These inactive wellbores provide access to subsurface reservoirs of hot water and rock that can be tapped for the commercial development of deep geothermal direct use or power generation projects. Repurposing retired wells reduces costs and environmental impacts versus drilling new wells. It provides a beneficial use for legacy oilfield assets. Geothermal power holds promise as a clean, renewable baseload energy source that could help transition communities away from declining fossil fuel production. Reusing existing well infrastructure for geothermal could support more stable, diversified local economies while making use of energy locked in the subsurface to provide low-carbon heating and electricity for homes and businesses. </p></div></div><a class='show-more'>Show more</a> </div> <meta itemprop="inLanguage" content="English"> <span style="display: none;" itemprop="publisher" itemscope="" itemtype="https://schema.org/Organization"> <span itemprop="name">American Association of Petroleum Geologists (AAPG)</span> <meta itemprop="logo" content="https://img.aapg.org/Portals/0/images/_site/AAPG-logo-footer.png"> </span> <div class="morelink">Added on <span itemprop="datePublished" class="schema">07 December, 2023</span></div> </div>  <div class="list-with-images explorer-articles dnnClear" itemscope="" itemtype="http://schema.org/Event">  <div class="litImage Webinar 1plus4 Rotation AAPG Academy Alternative Resources Hydrogen Energy Renewable Energy Virtual " style="position: relative;"> <a href='https://www.aapg.org/videos/webinar/articleid/67446' > <div class="image-overlay Virtual "></div> <noscript data-slimmage>  <img itemprop="image" class=" lazy " data-original="/Portals/0/PackFlashItemImages/WebReady/webinar-hq-2023-geologic-hydrogen-hero.jpg?width=200&height=200&mode=crop&anchor=middlecenter&encoder=freeimage&progressive=true&quality=90&scale=both&bgcolor=ffffff" src="/portals/0/PackFlashItemImages/WebReady/webinar-hq-2023-geologic-hydrogen-hero.jpg?width=200&height=200&mode=crop&anchor=middlecenter&encoder=freeimage&progressive=true&quality=90&scale=both&bgcolor=ffffff" alt="AAPG"> </noscript> </a> </div> <div class="text Webinar 1plus4 Rotation AAPG Academy Alternative Resources Hydrogen Energy Renewable Energy Virtual " id="pfid_67497"> <div class="author content-type" style="margin-bottom: 0px;"> <span class="content-type">Webinar</span> <span itemprop="author">By Peter Lloyd</span> </div> <div class="city-state-country">Virtual Webinar</div> <div class="dates"><span class="weekday schema">Tuesday, </span>19 December 2023<span class="time schema">, 12:00 p.m.–1:00 p.m.</span></div> <div class="h5" itemprop="headline"> <a itemprop="url" href='https://www.aapg.org/videos/webinar/articleid/67446' >Geologic Hydrogen: Global Occurrences and Case Studies</a> </div>  <div class="show-more-snippet fade"><div class="summary" itemprop="description"><p>Global Occurrences and Case Studies: In this webinar, you'll learn about the quickly expanding world of exploration for geologic hydrogen. Geoff Ellis of the USGS details the nature and origin of natural hydrogen, the reasons for accumulations, and effective exploration strategies. He then reviews locations in the world where reserves of natural hydrogen have been found, and discuss current activities and trends. Avon McIntyre of Hyterra discusses the company's drilling activities in pursuit of geologic hydrogen, including operations along the Nemaha Ridge in the central U.S. The project includes Project Geneva in Nebraska, and Nemaha Ridge, Kansas, both in the U.S. </p></div></div><a class='show-more'>Show more</a> </div> <meta itemprop="inLanguage" content="English"> <span style="display: none;"
