Geothermal.
Geothermal energy currently contributes to less than 1% of the world's energy supply.
The Geothermal Energy Expo is the world's largest gathering of geothermal industry vendors exhibiting their projects, equipment, services and state of the art technology to the geothermal communityThe worlds best geothermal companies are:Calpine Corporation CPN 12.35 5.46BOrmat Technologies (ORA) top geothermal company 38.71 1.76BMagma Energy Corp MXY 2.00* 459.92MRaser Technologies (RZ) geothermal power / electric motors 1.80 135MUS Geothermal Power (UGTH) American geothermal energy developer 1.57 96MPolaris Geothermal Inc.

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.
it was the geothermal arwer
The largest geothermal field in the world is located in The Geysers in California, USA. It covers an area of around 45 square miles and is one of the most productive geothermal areas for electricity generation.
In the US for 2006 electricity production, geothermal produced 0.30 percent. I do not have world figures
Iceland is a world leader in geothermal power production. Due to its location on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, the country has abundant geothermal resources which are harnessed for electricity generation and heating purposes. Iceland's geothermal energy provides a significant portion of its total energy consumption.
in the world of the earth and the sky is blue
Geothermal energy is heat generated and stored in the Earth's core. It can be harnessed for power generation through geothermal power plants. An example of this is the Geysers Geothermal Complex in California, which is the largest geothermal field in the world, producing electricity by tapping into natural steam reservoirs beneath the Earth's surface.
Geothermal energy plants can be built anywhere in the world, but their viability depends on the presence of suitable geothermal resources, such as hot water reservoirs or magma chambers close to the Earth's surface. Regions with active tectonic plate boundaries, such as the Ring of Fire, are more likely to have suitable conditions for geothermal development.
Most people do not know what geothermal energy really is. It is only used in certain parts of the world where it is accepted.
