The further you travel toward the Earth’s core, the hotter it gets. Geothermal power generation passes hot water through an exchanger, creates steam and drives a turbine to produce power.
 

""

If you’ve ever soaked in a hot spring, you’ve experienced geothermal energy.

""

Geothermal energy used the earth’s heated core to produce power.

Reliability

High reliability

Geothermal energy is an extremely reliable source of energy.

Cost

High cost rating

Due to drilling and exploration resources required for geothermal production, it’s an expensive generation method.

Impact

Low environmental impact

A renewable energy source coming straight from the earth itself – there are no emissions and a small environmental footprint left.

Now

""
We have a geothermal resource 3 km under the Earth’s surface and are investigating how we can use this as a generation option in the future.

Future
