This book addresses the societal aspects of harnessing geothermal resources for various uses, including power production, heating, and cooling. It introduces a theoretical framework for a social scientific approach to the field and presents a preliminary collection of empirical case studies on geothermal energy and society from around the world.
By providing a conceptual and methodological framework for the study of geothermal energy and societies, this book—now in its second edition—brings together information and analyses that have previously been sparse and fragmented. The contributors explore the diverse aspects of the relationship between harnessing geothermal resources and the societies and local communities in which these developments occur. After introducing geothermal technologies, renewable energy concepts, as well as their social and policy contexts, along with the regulatory and environmental aspects of geothermal energy, the book analyzes and discusses global case studies. It also compares the social engagement tools applied in this field with those used in other sectors. This second edition is fully updated and includes new, previously unpublished case studies. The book will be useful to researchers from a range of disciplines who wish to explore the issues surrounding energy and society. It is also a valuable resource for geothermal experts and postgraduate students seeking to study the field in greater detail.
Chapter “Societal Engagement in Geothermal Energy in the United Kingdom: Early Lessons from a Nascent Sector” is available open access under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License via link.springer.com.

Her main research activity has been geothermal exploration, primarily through geophysical (electromagnetic) methods and data integration. She has been working on geothermal data organization, information portals, and geothermal data statistics. National and international research project coordination and strategic research and innovation planning in the field of geothermal energy have been her main activities for two decades. Adele coordinated three national projects and has been a partner and work package or task leader in ten European projects, mostly dedicated to geothermal assessment and research and innovation strategy.

Agnes Allansdottir is a social psychologist who specializes in international comparative social research on the ever-changing relationship and the ongoing dialogues between societies and scientific and technological developments. She has been highly engaged with
social scientific research on science, society, and technological developments for years, mostly as a principal investigator on international and comparative empirical research projects. Her research interests include public views on developments in the life science, cultural understanding of nature and natural processes, and issues about climate change and energy transitions. Further, she has repeatedly given advice, based on her research, to policymakers at national, European, and international levels. Agnes studied in her native Iceland, in Aix-en-Provence in France and at the London School of Economics and Political Science in the UK.

Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
