Hi, can someone explain how I could explain the extraction of geothermal energy from underwater volcanoes?
My science class is doing a Future City Project, and i have this pressing issue about explaining how the geothermal energy extraction works with underwater volcanos.(my city is underwater). I know HOW it works, but cant put it into words. Help is much appreciated!
How do I find out If my area is a good canidate for Geothermal Energy to be Installed?
How much does it cost? How much construction does it take to Install? Do you even have to live in a certain area to be a good place for Geothermal Energy or is that just a myth?
How does a generator work in a geothermal power plant? ?
i know that steam powers the turbine. And depending on the type of plant, i know how the steam is made. But once the turbine is spinning and generating electricity, i get lost. I know it all has something to do with electrons and metal coils and magnetic fields, but can you help me understand […]
Can I use a residential well for geothermal energy?
I am building a new house. We have to drill a deep well for water (~500ft). Can this same well be used for geothermal energy as well, or does that have to be on a separate system?
What are some negatives about geothermal energy?
Ok so basically im doing a debate in science against geothermal energy and my energy source is hydrogen. So I think im gonna lose because I cant find anything bad about geothermal energy. Just anything negative.
Solar or Geothermal energy to replace 100 percent of all electricity in house?
We have a 100% electric house. We live in a rural Texas town. We are upset about the cost of electricity and we were wondering what the cost would be to change from Electricity to solar power or geothermal energy to use in our home? I am also wondering what is the cheapest way to […]

Geothermal Energy: Harnessing the Heat Beneath Your Feet
Right below your feet is a source of renewable energy that is largely untapped. It heats groundwater by conduction and convection as it travels toward the surface of the earth. Lawrence Livermore National Lab scientists Carol Bruton and John Ziagos explain how geothermal energy can be used to generate electricity or heat buildings. Series: Science […]

Geothermal Heating
A brief introduction to geothermal: the next wave of clean and sustainable energy.
How much does it cost to install a geothermal energy source to power a home?
I am doing a project and I am wondering if it is cost-effective to install a geothermal energy source or solar panels? How much would installing a geothermal energy source cost, and would it make enough energy to supply a typical Californian family throughout the year?
What are the advantages of geothermal energy?
I’m doing a project in class on the advantages of geothermal energy, we have to convince everyone else that geothermal energy is the best energy source. I’d like to know anything and everything that is good about it. Thanks!
Can geothermal energy be an effective source in the United States?
Interested in why we don’t see geothermal plants built in the US… Is it because the energy extracted is too expensive, poor sites in the US, etc. Outside references to reliable reports, sources would be great, thanks! Re: sources, I’d like references to sources because, not having a background in the area, I don’t know […]
Geothermal energy is often the great hope of renewable energy as it can be continuously and reliably produced?
Geothermal energy is often the great hope of renewable energy as it can be continuously and reliably produced 24/7. While it it has the best potential, it is very limited geographically. The best geothermal resources are in Alaska and California, and the best potential resources are west of the Rockies. How do we overcome the […]
Geothermal Energy Process
This video describes the process of geothermal energy creation.
How can geothermal energy be used in the future?
The word geothermal comes from the Greek words geo (earth) and therme (heat). So, geothermal energy is heat from within the earth. We can use the steam and hot water produced inside the earth to heat buildings or generate electricity. Geothermal energy is a renewable energy source because the water is replenished by rainfall and […]
Geothermal Energy?
I need to know the answers for a couple questions about geothermanl energy for a report. I need to know: #1: Who was the person who founded geothermal energy and when? #2: What was the person’s resoning for researching that type of energy? #3: Why were they trying to comeup with a new type of […]
