Geothermal Energy

Geothermal energy is heat that is generated within Earth. ( Geo means "earth," and thermal means "heat" in Greek.) It is a renewable resource that can be harvested for human use. About 2,900 kilometers (1,800 miles) below Earth''s crust, or surface, is the hottest part of our planet: the core.

Geothermal power in New Zealand

Geothermal energy use in New Zealand is strongly tied to Wairakei, where the first geothermal plant was opened in 1958. At that time, it was only the second large-scale plant existing worldwide (the first being the Valle del Diavolo ''Devil''s Valley'' plant in Larderello, Italy opened in 1911). [7]

Geothermal power: Technology brief

Process and Technology Status. Geothermal energy is heat derived within the sub-surface of the earth. Water and/ or steam carry the geothermal energy to the earth''s surface. Depending on its characteristics, the geothermal energy can be used for heating and cooling purposes or can be harnessed to generate clean electricity.
