No, steam energy is produced whenever water is heated, and this can be by burning anything, as well as using heat from under the ground. Geothermal energy is specifically the heat from under the ground, which can be turned into steam to generate electricity.

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.
Geothermal runs on what energy?
Geothermal energy uses the heat of the Earth to turn water to steam.
Can you eat geothermal energy?
No. Geothermal energy is generally volcanic in nature and is steam vents, mud pots, and geysers.
Where geothermal energy is located?
Geothermal energy is the use of the Earth's heat to turn water to steam, which turns a turbine.
Is Geothermal the same as Solar. If it is not the same then what is Geothermal?
Geothermal energy is not the same as solar energy- geothermal refers to heat generated by the earth, not the sun.
How do scientists change geothermal energy into electricity?
Geothermal energy manifests by ejecting steam from the ground. This steam is piped to a power plant where it is injected to turbines that are coupled to electric generators.
What kind of energy involves steam from Earth's interior?
geothermal
What is badthings about geothermal energy?
installation can be hard and the steam can run out
Where does the heat for geothermal energy come?
steam in the earth
Is geothermal energy pollutional?
Geothermal energy uses the heat of the Earth to boil water to steam and convert the steam to electricity and/or heating. No fuel means no emissions. No emissions means no pollution.
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 same about fossil fuels and geothermal energy?
they both pollute.both fossil fuels and geothermal energy pollute they envirenment because when the water(steam) comes out to power the turbines it bring dust and other pollutents into the air.
