Introduction
Currently, hydrothermal energy is being commercially used for electricity generation and for meeting thermal energy requirements. In 2015, The world's geothermal electricity generation capacity was 12676 MW and another 18000 MW for thermal applications.

Introduction (Contd.)
From the surface down through the crust, the normal temperature gradient - the increase of temperature with the increase of depth - in the Earth's crust is 17 °C -- 30 °C per kilometre of depth

Temperature results like this would definitely encourage the drilling of a larger, deeper well to try to find a hydrothermal reservoir.

Introduction (Contd.)
In India, exploration and study of geothermal fields started in 1970. The GSI (Geological Survey of India) has identified 350 geothermal energy locations in the country. The most promising of these is in Puga valley of Ladakh. It has been estimated from geological, geochemical, shallow geophysical and shallow drilling data that India has about 10,000 MWe of geothermal power potential.

First, a small- diameter "temperature gradient hole" is drilled (some only 200' deep, some over 4000 feet deep) with a rig to determine the temperatures and underground rock types.

Bathing in hot pools like these at Hot Creek, Mammoth Lakes, California, has been practiced throughout history. Be careful -- people and animals have been burned badly in unfamiliar pools.

Since Roman times, we have piped the hot water into pools to better control the temperature. These are photos of outdoor and indoor pool and spa bathing in Japan, the US, and Europe.

When the rising hot water and steam is trapped in permeable and porous rocks under a layer of impermeable rock, it can form a geothermal reservoir

Geothermal Heating

Geothermal Energy can be spectacular!

In several western US states, many long greenhouses are built and heated with geothermal water. This one is in New Mexico.

Peppers, tomatoes, and flowers are commonly grown in geothermally heated greenhouses.

Geothermal water is also used to speed the growth of fish. These are growing in a geothermally heated hatchery at Mammoth Lakes, California.

These alligators are grown in geothermally heated water in Idaho.

Pipes of geothermal water can be installed under sidewalks and roads to keep them from icing over in winter, like this sidewalk in Klamath Falls, Oregon.

Those white plumes you see at geothermal power plants are steam (water vapor). Geothermal plants do not burn fuel or produce smoke.

Geothermal power plants are clean and are operating successfully in sensitive environments.

CONCLUSIONS One-time investment and low maintenance cost, low area requirement, and incentives given by the Govt. for non-conventional energy sector is attracting many IPPs in India. Even IPPs who are involved in solar Photovoltaic and solar thermal power business are frantically exploring partners to finance geothermal projects. Since all the thermal provinces are located in rural areas with excellent communication system, power projects as well geothermal based industries are going to reduce congestion in Urban areas and improve socio-economic status of the rural public.
