Geothermal energy comes from the heat in the Earth's core. The heat is
used to evaporate a liquid which goes through turbines as it rises,
generating electricity. The geological locations where the geothermal
heat is easily available are limited and subject to change, but
geothermal is a free and environmentally sound source of electricity.
Geothermal can also be used for home heating, in which pipes are put
into the ground which circulate a liquid that captures heat or cold from
the ground and distributes it through the home. Geothermal heating
systems for buildings are becoming popular.LINKS:Info:
