A veteran of the U.S. Submarine Service (one hitch) and a degreed
Electrical Engineer (U.T. Knoxville — 1968 — three peer - reviewed IEEE papers published), I spent most of my career designing, building and commissioning electric
power generating
plants including hydro, pumped storage, coal
fired, natural gas, nuclear (both PWR and BWR), geothermal, wood - waste, and landfill gas.
Drawing on the latest technologies, including those used by oil and gas companies in drilling and in enhanced oil recovery, the team estimated that enhanced geothermal systems could be used to develop 100,000 megawatts of
electrical generating capacity in the United States by 2050, a capacity equal to 250 coal -
fired power plants.
On the other hand, it is reasonable to assume that natural market factors will gradually result in a reduction of ever more expensive fossil fuel combustion as older coal -
fired power plants are shut down and replaced by nuclear
plants, as hybrid and
electrical cars gradually replace gasoline and diesel driven ones, and as energy efficiency is improved and waste reduced.
On the other hand, incremental
electrical production is usually from gas -
fired power plants, usually CCGT.
