Steam is used to generate energy at geothermal power facilities. The steam emanates from hot water reservoirs a few kilometres or more under the earth's surface.
The steam turns a turbine, which turns a generator, which generates energy. Dry steam, flash steam, and binary cycle geothermal power plants are the three types of geothermal power plants.
Steam, but not wet
- Dry steam power plants get its steam from subsurface reservoirs.
- The steam is pumped straight from subterranean wells to the power plant's turbine/generator unit.
- In the United States, there are just two known subsurface sources of steam:
- Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming, where there is a well-known geyser named Old Faithful.
- Because Yellowstone is off-limits to development, The Geysers is home to the country's only dry steam plants.
