Geourrrthermaurllll energyyy

• Philippines placed 3rd in Geothermal Energy production but placed 2nd in your book
• Geo. Earth
• Thermal (therme). Heat
• Geothermal Energy can be generated in two ways:

  Geothermal Power plants

  Geothermal Heat pumps
• 14.4% of the total power is generated from Geothermal Energy production in the philippines
• Geothermal energy is more cheaper than using natural gas to generate electricity

  True
• Hydropower uses water to generate electricity
• Geothermal power plants. Wells are drilled deep into the earth to pump hot water to the surface, turn it to steam and is use it to generate electricity. The steam is then transferred to the cooling tower and condenses it back to water, and returns it back into the earth to repeat process
• Cooling tower. Condenses steam back to water.
• Wells. Pump steam or hot water to the surface
• Turbine. Extracts the energy from the steam, which is connected to the generator and is used to generate electricity
• Geothermal Energy is energy from the volcano.
• Geothermal Energy is the heat that is stored deep within the earth that originates from the melted magma
• Geothermal power plants in the Philippines.

• Thermal Energy. Heat Energy
• Electrical Energy. A form of energy resulting from the flow of electric charge
• Mechanical Energy. Is the energy possessed by an object due to its motion or due to its position.
• Thermal Energy. Is produced when a rise in temperature causes atoms and molecules to move faster and collide with eachother
• geothermal heat pumps. Removes the heat from the fluid in the earth connection. concentrates it, and then transfers it to the building
• Geothermal Energy is helpful in our country.

  True
• Advantages of geothermal energy

  renewable

  more environmentally friendly

  sustainable
• Disadvantages of geothermal Energy

  Costly

  poses some environmental problems
• Mt. Pinatubo in 1991 releases particles called aerosol which reduced the temperature that lasted 2 years.
• Mt. Pinatubo provided a beautiful lake scenery after its eruption

  Advantage
• PHIVOLCS

  Philippine institute of volcanology and seismology.
• PHIVOLCS (Philippine institute of volcanology and seismology). Monitors the activity of earthquakes and volcanoes.
