continuously produced
inside the earth. People use
geothermal heat for

and to generate electricity.
Why is geothermal energy

percent of the world’s geothermal
generation capacity. Most, if not all of this
geothermal capacity is located in the
Philippines and Indonesia.
Geothermal energy is a form of renewable
energy produced by heat from the earth.
It is considerably safer than most other
energy sources. Unlike fossil fuel plants,
geothermal power does not produce
greenhouse gases (GHG) that are harmful
to the environment.
