Geothermal Energy

The heat trapped inside the Earth is a vast, largely untapped source of energy. When magma from the interior rises to the surface, it releases tremendous heat. This heat can be captured and converted into electrical energy. Additionally, the hot water that gushes out through geyser wells is also used to generate thermal power. This entire form of energy is called geothermal energy.

Geothermal energy is now considered a key alternative energy source. The use of hot springs and geysers for heating and bathing dates back to the medieval period. …
