BENEFITS OF HAVING GEOTHERMAL POWER PLANT
WHAT IS GEOTHERMAL POWER PLANT?
•GEOTHERMAL POWER PLANTS-ARE USED IN ORDER TO
GENERATE ELECTRICITY BY THE USE OF GEOTHERMAL
ENERGY (THE EARTHS INTERNAL THERMAL ENERGY)
 SO HOW DOES IT WORKS?
• AT A GEOTHERMAL POWERPLANT WELLS ARE DRILLED 1 OR 2 MILES DEEP INTO THE
EARTH TO PUMP STEAM OR HOT WATER TO THE SURFACE.YOU’RE MOST LIKELY TO FIND
ONE OF THESE POWERPLANTS IN AN AREA THAT HAS A LOT OF HOT SPRINGS,GEYSERS
OR VOLCANIC ACTIVITY,BECAUSE THESE ARE THE PLACES WHERE THE EARTH IS
PARTICULARY HOT JUST BELOW THE SURFACE.
WHAT IS GEOTHERMAL ENERGY ?

•GEOTHERMAL ENERGY- IS SUSTAINABLE AND RENEWABLE

ENERGY SOURCE THAT IS STILL LARGELY UNTAPPED. THIS ENERGY
IS FROM THE HEAT OF EARTH’S INTERIOR .THIS ENERGY IS USED
IN POWER PLANTS TO GENERATE ELECTRICITY.
 BENEFITS OF HAVING GEOTHERMAL POWER
PLANT
• DID YOU KNOW THEY ARE MORE ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY THAN
CONVENTIONAL FUEL SOURCES SUCH AS COAL AND OTHER FOSSIL FUELS.IN
ADDITION,THE CARBON FOOTPRINT OF A GEOTHERMAL POWER PLANT IS LOW.
• MORE ENERGY.GEOTHERMAL POWER STATIONS HAVE A GREAT CAPACITY-THEY
CAN GRAVELY HELP IN MEETING THE DEMAND FOR ENERGY THAT GROWS
EVERY YEAR,BOTH IN DEVELOPED AND DEVELOPING COUNTRIES.
BENEFITS OF HAVING GEOTHERMAL POWER PLANT

• PERMANENT POWER SUPPLY.UNLIKE OTHER RENEWABLE ENERGY

SOURCES,GEOTHERMAL ONE CAN PROVIDE A CONSTANT SUPPLY OF ENERGY- 24
HOURS A DAY, 7 DAYS A WEEK,365 DAYS A YEAR,REGARDLESS OF EXTERNAL FACTOR.
• SMALL AREA- THEY OCCUPY LESS SPACE THEN THEIR COAL,OIL AND GAS
EQUIVALENTS .ALTHOUGH THEY WILL REACH FAR BELOW THE EARTH’S SURFACE
THEIR AREA WILL BE NEGLIGIBLE.
BENEFITS OF HAVING GEOTHERMAL POWER PLANT
• LOW NOISE WORK-THERE IS A LITTLE NOISE IN THE PRODUCTION OF GEOTHERMAL
ENERGY.TO REDUCE THE NOISE ENGINEERS CAN INSTALL IN THE GENERATOR SHOPS
MATERIALS WITH HIGH DAMPING PROPERTIES.IT HELPS TO REDUCE NOISE POLLUTION.

• RENEWABLE AND SUSTAINABLE SOURCE- GEOTHERMAL ENERGY WILL NEVER

END,UNLIKE NON-RENEWABLE ENERGY SOURCES.AS LONG AS THE EARTH SUPPORTS
OUR LIVES,GEOTHERMAL POWER WILL WORK.
BENEFITS OF HAVING GEOTHERMAL POWER PLANT

•GEOTHERMAL ENERGY IS AFFORDABLE- MOST EXPERTS SAY THAT

GEOTHERMAL ENERGY WILL SAVE YOU UP TO 80% ON BILLS WHEN
COMPARED TO TRADITIONAL FOSSIL FUEL SOURCES.ALTHOUGH THE
INITIAL INVESTMENT MAY BE MORE,GEOTHERMAL ENERGY SOURCES
WILL SAVE YOU MONEY IN THE LONG RUN.
