Abstract:
Geological data plays a crucial role in mapping renewable energy resources and assessing the feasibility of carbon storage in volcanic regions. This review explores the utilization of geological data in these areas, highlighting its significance and implications. Geological data is fundamental in mapping renewable energy resources, such as geothermal and hydroelectric energy. By analyzing geological structures, researchers can identify areas with high potential for these renewable energy sources. This mapping is essential for sustainable energy planning, as it allows policymakers to prioritize regions for renewable energy development based on geological suitability. Additionally, geological data is instrumental in assessing the feasibility of carbon storage in volcanic regions. Volcanic rocks have the potential to store carbon dioxide through mineral carbonation, a process where CO2 reacts with minerals to form stable carbonates. Geological data, including rock composition, porosity, and permeability, is used to evaluate the capacity of volcanic rocks to store carbon dioxide safely and effectively. The utilization of geological data in renewable energy mapping and volcanic region carbon storage feasibility has significant implications for sustainable energy development and climate change mitigation. By mapping renewable energy resources, countries can reduce their dependence on fossil fuels and transition to cleaner, more sustainable energy sources. Furthermore, assessing the feasibility of carbon storage in volcanic regions can help mitigate the impacts of climate change by sequestering CO2 emissions from industrial sources. In conclusion, geological data plays a crucial role in mapping renewable energy resources and assessing the feasibility of carbon storage in volcanic regions. By leveraging geological data, policymakers and researchers can make informed decisions about sustainable energy development and climate change mitigation.
