Geothermal energy is supplied by hot water, coming from underground where it has been heated by volcanic action. The hot water can then be used either by heating homes, or providing steam to run turbine powered generators.
Damming rivers, provides Hydro elecricity. This is where water under pressure from a dam, is used to turn water turbines, connected to generators.
What else can I help you with?
Why do people live in earthquake and volcanic zone?
Minerals - volcanic eruptions create minerals which can be found in the volcanic rocks, locals can find this an sell it. Also mines may be created to extract the minerals, this creates jobs for locals. Geothermal Energy - A energy source produced from the steam of the volcano as the steam turns a turbine creating energy. Fertile Soil - Volcanic rocks can fertile the soil really well, so locals can grow crops very well on it. Locals can then sell this and make money. Tourism - People like to come and visit volcanoes and they find that they are interesting and pretty to look at. This brings business to local businesess and can make money. Brittany
What energy do lamps let in?
I assume you mean the energy they use. It really depends on the type of lamps. Often, electrical energy is used. A candle, as well as a lamp with a wick, uses the chemical energy in whatever fuel it uses (for example, the wax, in the case of a candle).
Bernini's 'David' twists with sun energy that the statue actually includes as part of the composition.?
Sun energy in a 17th century? What a fantastic idea. The energy is pure artistic expression. I can assure you this marble statue is not really moving on its pedestal.
What water cycle is powered by energy from the?
I really don;t kbps what is the a ser beca use i más doping my homework!:)
How could iron man's arc reactor work I know there is matter antimatter energy but that would be almost impossible?
His reactor is based off of extreme voltage fusion. you take extremely high amounts of energy and concentrate it on one tiny area of matter. slowly you convert matter to energy and power is generated. in iron man's case he used palladium (I don't really know what palladium has to do with this).
Do people accept geothermal energy?
Most people do not know what geothermal energy really is. It is only used in certain parts of the world where it is accepted.
What produces geothermal energy?
Geothermal energy is produced by the drilling out of natural gas from the earth into turbines that produce energy. xD This energy is not very common because it is really expensive.
What energy experts have harnessed geothermal energy?
I dont really know the answer that's why I asked YOU !
Does mining ores get geothermal energy?
No, it doesn't. Mining and geothermal energy applications generally happen at different locations. To cite one example, Iceland taps geothermal energy to do a lot of heating there. They don't really mine anything. In the big open pit mines where ores of copper, aluminum and other metals are removed, we don't see any geothermal energy being tapped or any geothermal power plants in operation nearby. It may be notable to cite that some of the gold mines of South Africa are places where geothermal energy makes conditions in the deep shafts and drifts uncomfortably hot. But the miners are there for the ore, and no one is really interested in the geothermal possibilities.
Why are wind hydroeletric and geothermal energy resources not suitable for providing energy worldwide?
I think they are VERY suitable; but so far, government policies don't exactly favor renewable and clean energy options. That is, billions are given in subsidies to petrol companies, money which would really be better invested in clean energy options.
What energy does the volcano has?
Geothermal energy
What is the color of geothermal energy?
Oh, dude, geothermal energy doesn't really have a color. It's like asking what color wind is, you know? It's just energy that comes from the Earth's heat, so it's not really something you can slap a color on. It's more about harnessing that natural heat for power, rather than worrying about what shade it is.
Is habitat destruction a disadvantage of geothermal energy?
No, habitat destruction is not a direct disadvantage of geothermal energy. The main environmental concerns associated with geothermal energy are the release of greenhouse gases and potential subsurface water pollution. However, habitat destruction can occur if geothermal facilities are not properly managed and situated in ecologically sensitive areas.
Is solar power better than geothermal energy?
There really isn't a "better" type of energy but solar doesn't affect the Earth as much as geothermal energy because we always get the sun but with geothermal energy we have to use more resources. But then again if we have solar energy then when it's dark we don't have the sun to power things unless we stored it which is very complex. so as i said there really isn't a better energy source.
How can geothermal be converted to energy?
Geothermal is energy, we don't convert it to energy. I think what you're really asking is how can we convert geothermal energy into work. There are geothermal energy fields near Calistoga California. There they simply bore into the ground where the natural hot steam is found from volcanic action and siphon off the steam. That steam is funneled through turbines that turn and power up attached electricity generators. Then the geothermal energy converted to electrical energy is used in the conventional way to power up appliances and such in homes and buildings to do work. The power plant there is called Calpine.
Are binders a renewable resource?
I'm not really sure. Renewable resources are usually qualified as wind, solar, geothermal energy, etc...
Why is geothermal energy not being used everywhere?
There's really only one reason why geothermal energy isn't used everywhere: not everywhere on the planet has some measure of geological activity, which is required for the potential of geothermal energy to exist. Underground reservoirs of water are heated by geological activity, such as earthquakes and volcanoes. This water turns to steam and expands. It is the force this steam can exert through its own natural convection that geothermal activity taps into to generate energy. Therefore, geothermal couldn't be done in areas that aren't geologically active, such as the Sahara Desert.
