Geothermal energy is not directly impacted by the sun, as it is derived from the heat within the Earth's crust. However, the sun's energy can indirectly influence geothermal systems by affecting surface temperatures and contributing to the Earth's overall heat budget.

Which alternative energy sources are not affected by the sun?

Geothermal energy and tidal energy are alternative energy sources that are not directly affected by sunlight. Geothermal energy harnesses heat from the earth's core, while tidal energy captures the gravitational forces of the moon and sun on the Earth's oceans to generate electricity.


Is geothermal energy affected by solar energy?

Since geothermal energy comes from underneath the earth you would say no. But since there is water flowing to from the the wells that produce the geothermal energy and solar energy (heat from the sun) can change water temperature, it can.


Is geothermal from the sun?

Geothermal energy is not directly from the sun. It comes from the heat within the Earth's core due to radioactive decay of elements like uranium and thorium. This heat is continuously produced and used for geothermal energy generation.
