Abstract

The interior of earth contains in the form of natural steam and hot water is called as
geothermal energy. Inside the earth heat is transferred from mantle to crust. The geothermal
energy can be created by earth internal heat generated from radioactive crumble and
constant heat loss from earth core. Core-mantle boundary temperature may reach over the
high temperature and pressure causes solid mantle to behave plastically and melting of rock
in the interior of earth which make the portion of mantle to convict upward as it is lighter
than the surrounding rock. [1] Rock and water is heated in the crust sometimes up to 370o C.
in this research paper we cited a different literature from various researchers and find out
geothermal energy utilization and its application as renewable resource.
