energy produced by the internal heat of the earth..... return
geothermal energy is the natural heat of the earth that is conducted or convected to the earth's surface through volcanoes and hot springs. By harnessing this energy and using it to power steam turbines, we can convert geothermal energy into electricity that we can use.
Geothermal energy is generated by converting heat contained in the earth's crust into electricity. Click here for more information on geothermal power.
Electricity generated by utilizing naturally occurring geological heat.
Electricity derived from heat found under the earth's surface.
Geothermal power is the use of geothermal heat to generate electricity. It is often referred to as a form of renewable energy, but because the heat at any location can eventually be depleted it is by definition not strictly renewable. Geothermal comes from the Greek words geo, meaning earth, and therme, meaning heat.
