costs less than gas or oil. doesnt pollute the air and its naturall
There are many advantages to having Geothermal power! For more detailed information go here: http://www.squidoo.com/benefitsofgeothermal
Geothermal power stations are built by digging into the Earth's crust and tapping into the direct heat that is never ending. It generally takes around nine months to start a geothermal power station.
As a power source? Free fuel, no pollution, unlimited run time.
the advantages of geothermal energy is the power the sort of electrisity that is generated is so srong and powerfull that it could power a hole country this is a very high tech energy source
Not everywhere is suitable for geothermal, as it needs suitable hot rocks not too far below the surface of the earth. It is also easier to keep buying and burning coal in existing power stations. Only when the old power stations have to be renewed do business and governments think of renewable energy.

Geothermal energy is not harmful. There are dangers in any power plant, of course, but the advantages of geothermal energy far outweigh the disadvantages. The advantages are that it is renewable and pollution free.

The geothermal energy can be used for production of elctricity as so called steam power stations.

More power on peak times If one goes down, they can rely on the other power stations

There are a few 1 in Kawerau, Wairakei & Ohaaki all in the North Island
In New Zealand and Japan it is known as geothermal power, which is power extracted from heat stored in the earth. As of 2010 there are 10 geothermal power stations operational or under construction in New Zealand. Japan has 15 such plants.
No. They are extracting existing heat from the earth, and converting that to electrical power. There are no fossil fuels burned there.
