There is no nuclear process involved, geothermal energy comes from hot material near the earth's surface. It is related to volcanic activity.

How does nuclear energy use differ from geothermal and solar energy use?
C. Geothermal and solar energy are both renewable, while nuclear energy is noy...
What energy is better nuclear or geothermal?
geothermal is better because it is eco-friendly
Why geothermal energy and nuclear energy different in respect?
Geothermal energy comes from the Earth's core. As we can't examine this directly, scientists are uncertain just what produces this energy. Some will come from radioactive decay, and some is the residue from when the Earth was formed as a lump of hot matter, from some unknown supernova. As far as we know there is no nuclear fission process going on in the core, though I don't see why this should be discounted. Nuclear energy as produced by man is definitely a process of nuclear fission, so this is the difference.
Where does geothermal energy come from nuclear or power plants?
Geothermal energy comes from power plants that pump water underground near magma. Iceland uses a lot of geothermal energy as there is an abundance of geological activity near the surface.

What energies are limited?
those energies are geothermal energy,nuclear energy, and biomass energy...
How is nuclear energy different from geothermal energy?
Geothermal energy comes from hot rock layers not far below the Earth's surface. Nuclear energy comes from changes in nuclei of certain elements. They are not related in any way
Who is the leader of geothermal energy?
wind, solar, nuclear power, hydroelectric
What are some of the sources of electricity?
Lightning, solar energy, hydroelectric energy, geothermal energy, nuclear energy, and wind energy.
What energy cannot be traced back to sun?
Geothermal energy and nuclear energy cannot be traced back to the sun.
