Geophysics and the Energy Transition involves four sections: What is
the Energy Transition and why storage so important; selecting sites
for storage; advanced monitoring technology; and moving forward to
integrating Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) within the Energy
Transition. Geophysics will also play a role in finding and developing
alternatives to fossil fuels such as natural hydrogen and geothermal
using much of the knowledge gained from the CO2 storage industry. To
provide the public and others with the confidence to move forward with
a structured and cost-effective energy transition, this book provides
the necessary evidence that we can store CO2 safely and effectively
and use this as a significant component of the energy transition. We
can also find and store new energy sources.
Geophysics and the Energy Transition is written by experts in the
field who have practiced the science and engineering associated with
the subsurface for years. CCS is an integral component of the new
energy transition but the application of Geophysics in the future will
extend well beyond CCS if we are going to transition successfully to a
carbon neutral environment. Science, engineering, and technology
applications are important for site selection, characterization and
monitoring to assure safe storage in the subsurface and energy
sustainability in the future.
