Geysers (the Geysers, California)

The Geysers in California is the world's largest geothermal energy complex, consisting of about 20 geothermal power plants that harness natural steam from Earth's heat deep underground. These steam reservoirs are heated by volcanic activity beneath the surface. The steam is used to spin turbines that generate electricity without burning fossil fuels, making it a renewable and environmentally friendly energy source. The Geysers' sustainable operation relies on carefully managing groundwater and steam extraction to maintain the geothermal reservoir's health. It provides a significant portion of California's clean electricity, showcasing how Earth's natural heat can be efficiently converted into power.
