Power generation is extremely capitalintensive at inception and tends to be fuel or variablecost sensitive over time. Once a power system is organized around a suite of technologies, such as fossil based generation, it becomes difficult to shift or redesign the system. Key reasons for this can be found in the nature of the support facilities, including fuel acquisition and transformation, transportation pipes and wires, storage facilities, and delivery systems – which also entail longlived capitalintensive facilities. As a consequence, improvements of existing systems tend to occur at the margin, in the form of advanced technologies for a particular fuel source. Geothermal power technologies are no exception to this trend. The learning curve involved in extending drilling capability, and in more efficient fracture and stimulation of rock, leads directly to higher rates of heat recovery. The three phases of expected improvement demonstrate the application of the learning curve thesis in terms of more efficient power generation and lower costs. The fact that the delivered cost of power remains effectively level over time after taking advantage of installation economies, e.g., largersize plants, demonstrates the benefits of continuous improvement in techniques and technology. Renewable energy technologies, in particular, have shown great benefitPDF Image | Energy Sector Fundamentals
