Compare geothermal to solar

Geothermal costs more to install because of all the digging But, geothermal saves more money on heating and cooling costs each month once you have it Which is more $?

When? You can get heat and cooling from geothermal 24/7 Solar only when the sun is out When?

Where? residential geothermal can be anywhere, power plants only out west solar residential can be anywhere, Power plants can be anywhere and also solar is portable so it can be on a backpack, car, or anywhere. Where?

Generate electricity? yes for both, but for geothermal only the power plant generates electricity. Residential geothermal is only for heating and cooling

Generate heat? yes for both residential power plants: both generate electricity (solar takes a lot of room) Generate heat?

Good for the environment? Geothermal is very good solar use chemicals to make the solar cells
