A method for extracting a fuel from a geologic formation comprises heating a target volume in the geologic formation to generate the fuel via thermal conversion of a precursor material, thereby also heating a part of the geologic formation, extracting the generated fuel from the geologic formation; recovering heat from the geologic formation; and using the recovered heat for one or more of: heating the target volume, heating a different target volume, extracting the fuel, recovering the heat from the geologic formation, processing the extracted fuel, and converting the recovered heat into another form of storable energy.
