"Peter Meisen, Past President, Global Energy Network Institute in 1997 stated "What if there was an existing, viable technology, that when developed to its highest potential could increase everyone's standard of living, cut fossil fuel demand and the resultant pollution". After 23 three years of sustained effort by the global scientific community, this is becoming true. Technology to extract heat from granites is being revolutionized during last few years. The classical method of creating fracture network by hydrofraturing is being replaced by closed loop method where fluids are not in contact with the hot granite. Supercritical CO2 is replacing water as a circulating fluid. Certainly, the future energy road is going to be led by high radiogenic granites. While hydrothermal source is site specific and has its limitations, EGS can be initiated anywhere on earth. EGS is removing all such obstacles and in future will provide uninterrupted electricity for all. Energy deficient countries can have surplus electricity, water stressed countries can have perennial freshwater supply and countries can become food secured and rise above poverty level. Countries need not depend on energy imports and independently evolve into carbon neutral or low carbon societies. The contributions made by experts will help the researchers and investors to close the energy demand and supply gap in the very near future by tapping the unlimited energy from the Earth. Opportunities available for investors in Turkey is well documented with field, geophysical and geochemical data and information on energy generating capacity of the granite intrusives spread over a cumulative area of 6910 sq.km in western Anatolia. With the signing of GGA (Global Geothermal Alliance) by several countries during the December 2015 CoP 21 (Conference of Parties) summit in Paris, countries are obliged to reduce CO2 emissions by increasing the footprint of renewable energy in the primary source mix. Information provided in this book will lead the road to establish clean energy future for the millions for sustainable development and help to mitigate crisis arising due to food, water, and energy shortage issues. Academic and research institutes will benefit to a large extent from the expertise of top contributors in this book. This information provided in this book will help to lay foundation to super-hot EGS research in future"--
