Some of those cited are pollution, waste, conversion, and corrosion.
Releasing poisonous gasses
It has caused earthquakes. Countries that has openly reported these problems include Germany, Switzerland, and United States.
Geothermal energy gets its power by using heat from the Earth's interior.Most geothermal resources are in regions of active volcanism.
Only nations that are in volcanic areas are good candidates for geothermal power. So, The USA (in California) has geothermal power, and Japan. But the world leader for geothermal energy is a little frozen island with a fantastic mix of volcanoes and glaciers; Iceland!
Wind Energy,Hydro Power, Geothermal Energy, Solar Energy.
Geothermal power plants are used for anything. Since they generate electricity by using the heat of the earth, they can be used to power communities. Anything that needs electricity could use a geothermal power plant and it is one of the cleanest forms of power generation yet. Furthermore, some large factories use geothermal heat to heat their factories. This is achieved in a similar fashion as geothermal power plants but instead of heating the water to steam underground, it is only heated enough that it does not biol. This heated water is then sent thoughout tubes around the factor and the heat dissipates into the air heating it.
Canada uses geothermal energy it is called Geothermal heat pumps.
Geothermal is power from the heat inside the earth. Hydro is power that comes from using water.

Geothermal energy is being used extensively in NZ to produce power, Many countries in the world, especially Iceland and New Zealand are using geothermal energy.

Two alternatives are Hydroelectric and Geothermal.

Using a geothermal transformer
No. By using geothermal heat to produce power you do not need to burn fossil fuel to run generators and thereby reduce the amount of green house gases and other pollutants being put in the atmosphere.
The two major disadvantages of wind power include initial cost and technology immaturity.

Geothermal energy is heat from the Earth.
Geothermal energy is renewable because it is using heat for the earths "core" and water (turned to steam by the heat) to power steam turbines. Both the heat and water are renewable resources thus geothermal energy is renewable.
