There's a boiler which produce steam. Steam drives/turns the turbine. The turbine is connected to the alternator rotor via a shaft. Turning the rotor then generate electricity.

What are three types of geothermal energy?

Dry Steam Power Plant : generates power directly from the steam from inside the earth.Flash Steam Power Plant : Flash steam plants use waters at temperatures greater than 360F. As this hot water flows up, it is collected in a flash tank where drop in pressure causes the liquid to boil into steam. The steam is then used to run turbines which in turn generate power. The condensed steam is returned to the reservoir.Binary Steam Power Plant : This type of plant uses high temperature geothermal water to heat another liquid which has a lower boiling point than water.


What is STG power plant?

STG stands for Steam turbine generator. It is a type of power plant that generates electricity by using steam to drive a turbine connected to a generator. The turbine converts the thermal energy in the steam into mechanical energy, which is then converted into electrical energy by the generator.
