As of 2020, geothermal energy accounted for about 0.4% of the total global energy consumption. However, the use of geothermal energy is growing steadily, with an increase in geothermal capacity installed each year. Countries like the United States, Philippines, Indonesia, and Iceland are among the top users of geothermal energy.
Geothermal energy is normally sourced from hot springs, geysers and hot rock deep under the ground. Usually, these are exploited to produce power. In the UK, some of the places with geothermal energy production plants include: East Yorkshire and Lincolnshire, Wessex, Worcester, Cheshire and Northern Ireland.
Geothermal energy is the use of the Earth's heat to turn water to steam, which turns a turbine.
Some places in the Philippines with potential for hydrothermal energy development include Mount Apo, Biliran Island, and Negros Island. These areas are known for their geothermal resources and have existing geothermal power plants harnessing this renewable energy source.
Geothermal energy can be found in regions along tectonic plate boundaries, such as the Pacific Ring of Fire, Iceland, the East African Rift, and parts of the Western United States. These areas have high temperatures below the Earth's surface, allowing for the extraction of geothermal energy through wells and geothermal power plants.
Geothermal energy plants can be found in locations with high geothermal activity, such as along tectonic plate boundaries or near active volcanoes. Some of the countries with significant geothermal energy production include the United States (especially in California and Nevada), Iceland, the Philippines, and New Zealand.
Nuclear Energy in the Philippines has been a on and off subject for years. The reactor in Bataan was started in the 70s and was found to have over 4,000 defects. The Philippines sits on top of some of the world best Geothermal resources. Geothermal would be the green answer for the Philippines.
The major renewable energy resources in the Philippines are: * biomass * geothermal * hydro * solar * wind
yes they do use the most geothermal energy.

Arturo Alcaraz is the one who powered an electric light bulb using steam-powered electricity (geothermal energy) near the town of Tiwi in the Philippines which gave him the title, "Father of Geothermal Energy of the Philippines"
