One comment from that link made me curious.
"They should install wind turbines around the perimeter of the hole and take advantage of it! New form of renewable energy – hole in the ground energy!"
Clearly a form of joke, but im intrigued to know why this won't work. (Or why it could work)
- benchaney 9y agoIf you are digging really big holes, there are presumably more efficient geothermal schemes.
- flukus 9y agoThese typically require large investments to build and suffer from other problems like salt corrosion, whereas putting wind turbines in seems like a very quick win.
- gambiting 9y agoSure, absolutely - but that hole is already there. Is there any way to use it for generating energy somehow?
