No. Construction equipment used to build the station will burn fossil fuels and produce some pollution. When the station is complete it will produce pollution free electricity. The station will require some electric power from the grid to operate, and some of that electricity may be produced by coal powered plants which do produce pollution, but the geothermal power station will not produce pollution.

What kind of power does magma make?
Geothermal
Liquid rocks make what kind of power possible?
Geothermal Energy/Power.
Where do you get geothermal energy?
You can get it in geysers and mostly geothermal power plants. Geothermal energy makes use of the heat of the Earth to heat water, make steam, and turn a turbine.
What is the source of energy used by geothermal power plants?
A thorough explanation of the geothermal energy would take a lot of discussion. Briefly; the Earth's core is molten rock (read very hot). The heat rises to the surface in multiple ways. Geothermal power plants make use of this heat (geothermal energy) to generate electrical power.
Why you should carry on using coal power stations?
We should carry on using coal power stations because we can make them eco-friendly.
How are nucler power and solar power alike?
They both don't make pollution
How do you get geothermal energy?
You get geothermal energy by drilling into the ground, where you use the heat to make steam. the steam then powers a turbo generator, which makes energy to power homes.
How does New Zealand make most eclectricity?
Hydro Electric Dams, Geothermal, Wind Power
Can geothermal energy put CO2 into the atmosphere?
No. Geothermal energy just uses the natural heat and hot rocks under the ground to heat water, often hot enough to make steam. This steam is then used to spin a generator, producing electricity. There is no carbon pollution resulting.
Are digital TV stations operating at half power?
I wouldn't say that they're all running at half power, but most likely some type of power reduction. Why? To make room for more TV stations and coverage areas.
Why does geothermal save so much in energy?
Because we are using energy that is already there. Normally to make power we need a heat source to boil water and use the steam to move turbines to make power. Geothermal energy uses the energy that is already there deep in the earth vs burning coal, gas, or nuclear fuel.
What impact does coal power to to the environment?
that it make a lot of pollution and kills some types of plants
