Best Answer

At some point in the distant future the earth's molten core will cool and solidify. At this point earth will lose its protective magnetic field and plate tectonics will come to an end. Also, the geothermal energy sources will no longer be available. We are talking about millions of years from now. Possibly a billion or more.

  • Naturally occurring geothermal vents are not widely available
  • Expensive to set up and may not be close to the electricity grid.
