Why isn't Canada using geothermal energy?
Canada uses geothermal energy it is called Geothermal heat pumps.
Can you give some examples of geothermal energy?
Geysers and hot springs are a natural example of geothermal energy. - In addition, geothermal energy is now a lot more common in homes and businesses, using geothermal heat pumps to cool and heat the building.
How can you use geothermal power?
geothermal power allows heat pumps to heat & cool buildings.
Is geothermal energy efficient?
Geothermal heat pumps boast a high energy efficiency. According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), geothermal heat pumps are the most energy-efficient, environmentally clean, and cost-effective systems for temperature control. If you have any question of geothermal energy you should visit http://geothermalexpert.net/index.html and do some research. It's never been a better time to invest in living green!
Why is geothermal energy impractical as an energy source in Maryland?
That depends on what you consider geothermal energy, and energy source. Ground source heat pumps could be used in Maryland, and would qualify as a geothermal energy source. This would use heat from the ground to help heat a home. If you are asking about geothermal power plants and such, higher temperature, larger reservoirs are not as common. It is quite likely that Maryland does not have such a reservoir. An area north of San Francisco called The Geysers is the single largest known geothermal reservoir, which has been commercially developed for power production. However, the many closed power plants in that area show the risks in developing a steam field. These risks can deter potential investors from attempting to explore smaller, lesser known fields until technology has improved to lessen the cost of such exploration.

Can geothermal pumps can be used for cooling?
Yes.The term geothermal heat pump is not the same thing as geothermal energy from hot springs. Here, it means a transfer of heat from the ground (in the winter) or to the ground (in the summer).

Is geothermal from the sun?
Geothermal energy is NOT from the sun. Geothermal energy is from heat inside the earth!
What are some advantages of geothermal heat pumps?
Some advantages for using geothermal heat pumps are that unlike other heating pumps, geothermal uses less electricity and even provides heated water. Their design is so flexible that you could install them in new and retrofit situations.
Do geothermal collectors transform energy from the sun?
No. Geothermal means heat from the earth. If something is collecting heat from the sun, that is not geothermal energy.
Heat energy coming from inside earth heat from volcanoes or geysers?
geothermal
