  2. Geothermal energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geothermal_energy

    Geothermal energy has been exploited as a source of heat and/or electric power for millennia. Geothermal heating, using water from hot springs, for example, has been used for bathing since Paleolithic times and for space heating since Roman times. Geothermal power (generation of electricity from geothermal energy), has been used since the 20th ...

  3. Geothermal power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geothermal_power

    Geothermal power is considered to be sustainable because the heat extraction is small compared to the Earth's heat content, but extraction must still be monitored to avoid local depletion. [7] Although geothermal sites are capable of providing heat for many decades, individual wells may cool down or run out of water.

  4. Mount Apo Geothermal Power Plant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Apo_Geothermal_Power...

    The Mount Apo Geothermal Power Plant is a geothermal power station located in Barangay Ilomavis, Kidapawan, Cotabato. Drawing steam from the Mindanao Geothermal Production Field, [ 3 ] the power station is situated near the foot of Mount Apo and has a power output of 106 MW.

  5. Geothermal activity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geothermal_activity

    Geothermal activity is a group of natural heat transfer processes, occurring on Earth's surface, caused by the presence of excess heat in the subsurface of the affected area, usually caused by the presence of an igneous intrusion underground. [1]

  6. Hot dry rock geothermal energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_dry_rock_geothermal_energy

    Although often confused with the relatively limited hydrothermal resource already commercialized to a large extent, HDR geothermal energy is very different. [3] Whereas hydrothermal energy production can exploit hot fluids already in place in Earth's crust, an HDR system (consisting of the pressurized HDR reservoir, the boreholes drilled from the surface, and the surface injection pumps and ...

  7. Thermal power station - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_power_station

    The majority of the world's thermal power stations are driven by steam turbines, gas turbines, or a combination of the two. The efficiency of a thermal power station is determined by how effectively it converts heat energy into electrical energy, specifically the ratio of saleable electricity to the heating value of the fuel used.

  8. Geothermal exploration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geothermal_Exploration

    Geothermal Energy is an underdeveloped energy resource and warrants further investigation and exploration. [2] According to the U.S. Department of Energy , Utah's geothermal capabilities alone, if fully developed, could provide 1/3 of the state's power needs.

  9. Ngozi Geothermal Power Station - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ngozi_Geothermal_Power_Station

    The Ngozi Geothermal Power Station is a planned 200 MW (270,000 hp) geothermal power plant in Tanzania, which is expandable to 600 MW (800,000 hp) in future. [ 1 ] Location
