2. How it works Geothermal energy is heat from the earth in a deep layer of out planet. The deep layer that contains magma is extremely hot, the heat is a great source of renewable energy. Heating water and turning it into steam with the heat released from the magma, after the steam is available its pressure is being used to operate a dynamo that produces electricity.

3. How the power stations work Water is heated I the earths crust then it rises to the surface. When heated water is forced to the surface, the steam is captured and used to drive electric generators.

4. Advantages Geothermal heat systems have lower cost. Very flexible They are easily inexpensively sub divided to fit buildings. More efficient

5. Disadvantages Require large supply of clean water Most anti-freeze solutions have very low toxicity Each unit requires both electrical and plumbing service. Secondary or backup sources are required in cooler climates
