Slide 1:
Title: Geothermal Energy
Slide 2:
Geothermal energy is a form of renewable energy derived from the Earth's heat.
Slide 3:
It utilizes heat from the Earth's interior to generate electricity and heat sources.
Slide 4:
Geothermal energy offers sustainability by providing a constant and consistent energy source.
Slide 5:
Advantages of Geothermal Energy:
- Renewable and sustainable
- Provides a constant and reliable energy source
- Reduces greenhouse gas emissions
- Requires a small land footprint
Slide 6:
Disadvantages of Geothermal Energy:
- Limited geographical availability
- High initial investment costs
- Potential for land subsidence and earthquakes in certain areas
- Requires specific geological conditions for proper utilization
Slide 7:
Technologies Used in Geothermal Energy:
- Geothermal power plants: utilize steam or hot water from underground reservoirs to generate electricity
- Ground source heat pumps: extract heat from the Earth to provide heating and cooling for buildings
Slide 8:
Global Geothermal Energy Potential:
- Hotspots: regions with high geothermal energy potential, including Iceland, New Zealand, Philippines, and parts of the United States
- Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS): technology that can potentially harness geothermal energy in locations without naturally occurring reservoirs
Slide 9:
Examples of Geothermal Energy Applications:
- Electricity generation for communities and industries
- Heating and cooling systems for residential and commercial buildings
- Direct uses in agriculture, such as greenhouse heating and crop drying
Slide 10:
Future Outlook for Geothermal Energy:
