What This Module is About

People have always been fascinated with volcanoes and their intense displays
of nature’s power. During prehistoric period, humans believed that volcanoes were
homes to gods or goddesses. But today, science tells us that volcanoes result from
the immense heat energy---geothermal energy---found internal of the Earth’s.

There are many forms of energy: like solar, wind, and wave but the much safer
than most of the other energy sources that can be tapped to generate electricity and
that is Geothermal Energy. But what is Geothermal Energy?

 The sun is Earth’s main source of energy. It has a vast amount of energy. The
sun is considered Earth’s main energy source since most of our energy sources derive
their energy from it. There are two types of energy resources on Earth – renewable
and nonrenewable. A renewable energy source or alternative energy is one that can
be replaced in a short period of time such as solar energy and hydropower energy
while a nonrenewable energy source takes millions of years to replace or can never
be replenished. These energy sources can be used in many ways.

What’s New

The Philippines is located along the

Pacific Ring of Fire, a zone of volcanos and
volcanic activities, energy has been collected
from them making our country ranked second in
the worlds production of geothermal energy.

But do you know what Geothermal

Energy really is? To find out, let’s do the activity
to determine the knowledge you have for the
lesson. Figure 1. The map shows the tectonic plates
that form the Ring of Fire. Most countries of this
area have lots of geothermal energy.

Can you identify the pictures below?

Choose your answer from the word inside the box. Write in on the space provided.

Using the pictures above, complete the following sentences.

1. The ________________ erupted suddenly, killing hundreds of people.
2. There is a _______________________ that shoots out hot water every day.
3. A _______________ is a hole where the steam looks a lot like a smoke.
4. Many enjoys the warm waters of a _________________.

 In the activity you have identified some natural source of heat beneath the
Earth’s surface. This source of heat warms up water which is trapped in rocks
formations and may come up beneath its surface naturally as volcanoes, fumaroles,
hot springs and geysers. But what is this Earth’s internal heat called?

What Is It

If you were to dig a big hole straight down into the ground, you would notice
that the temperature deep down below is getting hotter the deeper you go. Why? That
is because the interior of the Earth is full of heat. That heat is referred to Geothermal
Energy!

The term geothermal energy is easy to remember if you will break it down! The
Greek word geo refers to the Earth, and thermal means heat, so geothermal energy
is energy from Earth’s heat. This energy is then used to power generators in the
production of electricity.

According to the Department

Fig. 2 Mak-Ban Geothermal Power Plant in Laguna,
Philippines (Photo Credits to Jun Baltazar)
of Energy one-fourth or 14.4% of the
electricity in the Philippines is
geothermal generated such as in
Tiwi (Albay), Kidapawan (North
Cotabato), Calaca (Laguna),
Tongonan (Leyte), Bago City
(Negros Occidental), Valencia
(Negros Oriental), and Bacon
(Sorsogon).
Power plants are built in an
area where it is particularly hot just
below the surface such as near a
group of geysers, hot springs, or
volcanic activity.

Do the next activity to locate the different geothermal power plant in the Philippines.

_____The electrical energy from the generator will travel to the transformer.
_____Pumping the hot water from geothermal energy.
_____Cold water is being pumped back again to the underground.
_____Steam supplies the turbine causes to rotate.
_____The generator produces electricity.

What Is It
A geothermal power plant generates electricity from geothermal energy (Earth’s
heat source). The main components of this power plants include: TURBINE-
composed of wheels which is driven by a water or a gas, GENERATOR- type of
machine made up of coils of wire to produce electricity, and TRANSFORMER-
electrical device used to transfer electrical charges.

Here are the basic steps on how this geothermal power plant generates
electricity:
1. Pumping the hot water from geothermal resource.
2. How water will travel through pipelines and reaching a particular tank where it
turns into steam (water in a gas form).
3. The steam supplies the turbine which causes to rotate in a continuous process.
4. A turbine is connected to a generator which electricity is being produced.
5. From the generator, electrical energy will travel into a transformer which is
responsible to transport to the different power lines.
6. The excess steam pass through a cooling station where it condenses (gas to
liquid).
7. The cold water is being pumped back again to the geothermal source to start the
process again.
Study the picture below.
