geothermal systems

Geothermal systems harness heat stored beneath the Earth's surface for energy and heating. The Earth’s interior is hot, and this heat naturally rises toward the surface. Geothermal energy systems tap into this thermal energy, often by drilling wells to access hot water or steam found underground. This steam or hot water can generate electricity or provide direct heating for buildings. These systems are sustainable, reliable, and produce low emissions, making them an eco-friendly alternative to fossil fuels. They are most effective in regions with high geothermal activity, such as volcanic areas or hot springs.
