    Geothermal Energy: Grade 9

    Uploaded by

    jem
    This document provides information about geothermal energy. It begins by defining geothermal energy as heat from within the Earth. It then describes how geothermal energy is generated through geothermal power plants that use steam to power turbines, and geothermal heat pumps that transfer heat from the Earth. Finally, it gives examples of geothermal power plants in the Philippines and discusses advantages and disadvantages of geothermal energy.

    What is Geothermal Energy?
    energy? powerplant in the Philippines
    Geothermal came from a Greek word
    Geothermal “Geo” which means “Earth”, and;

    energy “Thermal” which means “heat”.

    Therefore, it is the heat from the Earth.

    Most geothermal energy
    resources are usually found
    sa mga areas around plate
    borders, where most
    volcanic eruptions and
    earthquakes happens. In
    addition, areas with active
    volcano have high
    geothermal energy system
    Geothermal Energy is
    generated in two ways:
    ● Geothermal Power Plants – it is where heat
    from within the Earth changes water into
    steam (water in the gas phase), which turns
    steam turbines that generate electricity.
    Geothermal Energy is
    generated in two ways:
    ● Geothermal Heat Pumps – It removes the
    heat from the fluid in the Earth connection,
    concentrates it, and then transfer it to the
    building.
    Geothermal energy use in the world

    More than 16
    countries use it
    Geothermal Power Plant in
    the Philippines
    Makban Geothermal Complex
    (also known as Makiling Banahaw), is located approximately 26 km from Taal Volcano, only 11 km outside of the 14
    km evacuation zone. It is located at the base of another volcano, Mount Makiling.
    Tiwi Geothermal Complex
    is made up of 3 power plants with residential neighborhoods adjacent and located 5 km northeast of Malinao
    Volcano (or Mount Malinao). Together with the Makban plant, they support 15% of the Luzon grid.
    Malitbog Geothermal Power Station
    The world's largest geothermal power plant under one roof located in Malitbog, Kananga, Leyte, Philippines.
    The power plant is one of four operating in the Leyte Geothermal Production Field.
    Advantages of geothermal energy
