ABSTRACT
As the second-largest country of the world, undergoing explosive growth, India represents a unique and little-tapped source of expertise on multifarious issues of economic and social development. Among many other problems of concern, the development of alternative sources of energy is crucial to the future wellbeing of India “ indeed, of the globe. The increasing demand of the energy has forced the mankind to find a way out which will be efficiently and abundantly available source of energy. This made the human race to think of the beneficiaries of non-conventional energy development in India. Today one of the latest trends of non-conventional energy development to be implemented in our country is GEOTHERMAL POWER GENERATING TECHNOLOGY.
Future of Geothermal Energy
Geothermal power generation growth is continuing, but at a lower pace than in the previous decade, while direct heat uses show a strong increase compared to the past.
The total world use of geothermal power is giving a contribution both to energy saving (around 26 million tons of oil per year) and to CO2 emission reduction (80 million tons/year if compared with equivalent oil-fuelled production)
