Abstract

Geothermal Energy is the form of energy which is stored inside the earth in form of heat & exists in the form of steam, hot water & molten rocks & releases in the form of geysers, hot springs & volcanic eruptions. This natural source of heat is utilized to produce electric power by running a steam power plant. But if a close cycle gas turbine plant is run by this heat more output can achieve.
