Geothermal Friends for the earth.

Geothermal energy is essential for a sustainable future as it provides renewable power that is environmentally friendly and efficient. This alternative energy source works by harnessing heat from the Earth’s core, which is then converted into electricity through power stations. Although geothermal energy reduces pollution and has low operational costs, challenges such as site suitability and borehole management exist. Explore the advantages, disadvantages, and how geothermal energy operates, and test your knowledge with our quiz on this critical energy source.
