Abstract—Renewable power generation is rapidly
increasing due to the depletion and unfavorable environmental
impact of fossil fuels. Geothermal energy is a form of
renewable energy that can be effectively used for electric
power generation. Besides, geothermal power provides
considerable advantages compared to other renewable
resources such as solar and wind power. Geothermal energy
provides reliable, stable and efficient power compared to the
lack of inertia, lack of efficiency and the intermittent nature of
solar and wind resources. Moreover, geothermal power plants
must be integrated with energy storage devices to improve the
stability and flexibility of the power system. Gravity-fed energy
storage and flywheel energy storage systems are two reliable
technologies that can be integrated with geothermal power for
improved stability and flexibility. Furthermore, the
disadvantages of geothermal energy such as higher initial cost
and geographic dependency can be compensated using recent
research and developments in the geothermal technology.
These recent developments include enhanced geothermal
systems, small-scale geothermal power generation and
geothermal power generation using abandoned oil and gas
wells. Therefore, geothermal energy has the potential to
become a major power generating source in the future.
Keywords—Geothermal Energy; Energy Storage; Power
System Stability, Power System Flexibility
