1. Renewable Energy, present and future

2. To fifteen kilometers below the
surface of the Earth’s an almost
limitless source of energy…

3. It is the energy of the internal heat
of the earth and rock that reaches
420 degrees Celsius or more...
Is Geothermal Energy.

10. Geothermal energy provides that our planet has
been created.
Geo mean earth's heat and thermal means,
therefore, the geothermal heat energy coming
from the earth, resulting in heat flow from the
deeper layers because of magma rock and
natural radioactivity.

11. Uses of geothermal energy:
 Direct use of heat for industrial purposes or in the
known hot springs.
 Heating and water heating: With the establishment
of water networks. This network is also used for
heating greenhouses water, even in aquaculture, to
keep water from hatcheries at a suitable
temperature.
 Absorption refrigeration: Require a specific
computer.
 Electricity generation: They catch heat and using
generators can feed entire cities.

12. Benefits of geothermal energy:
 Geothermal energy is always available, no seasonal
variations.
 After an initial investment on infrastructure,
represent a major economic and energy savings.
 Exploiting no sound (produces no noise).
 By not using tanks or dams, occupies less land. A
geothermal power plant takes up less space than a
gas or coal.
 Lower CO2 emissions compared to the production of
energy by combustion.

13. Disadvantages of Geothermal Energy:
 In some deposits shows hydrogen sulfide, a health
hazard and even cause death (in bulk).
 Impairment of thermal pollution landscape.
• Not allowed to be transported.
