Description of Geothermal Energy

Geothermal energy is a renewable energy source. From geysers to hot springs, as long as there is a magma plume beneath groundwater, heat and steam can be naturally occurring. We can obtain geothermal energy by forcing large amounts of heated water and steam to the surface and use it to drive steam turbine generators to produce electricity. These steam turbines will spin from the steam pushed against it and power the generator. Then these generators will pass the electricity produced into our homes for us to use.

Geothermal energy can also be helpful to naturally heat up homes and create natural hot springs to enjoy as well!
