GEOTHERMAL ENERGY

Geothermal energy is heat energy from the earth. Geothermal resources are reservoirs of hot water that exist or human made at varying temperatures and depth below the earth’s surface. Even though geothermal energy is expensive to instal and it runs the risk of triggering earthquakes due to destabilisation of the earth crust, it is way more environmental friendly than conventional fuel sources. This energy is totally a renewable resource because the heat comes from underground pressure, so it is always available, moreover it replaces fossil fuels so emissions are reduced. Using this energy became one of the two major renewable sources for energy production in the country.
