The diagram illustrates how geothermal power can be utilized to produce electricity.
Overall, this electricity production using geothermal energy is a linear process that starts with cold water pumped down through a well and ends with a generator producing the electricity, which is then sent to the electricity grid.
First of all, cold water is pumped down 4,5 km underground through the injection well. Then, the water passes through the geothermal zone, which has hot rocks to raise the temperature of the water. Once the water is hot, it is then pumped up through the production well to a condenser.
The last two steps are done above the ground, where the condenser turns the hot water into steam. The steam produced by the condenser is used to spin the turbines. Afterwards, the spinning turbines power the generator used to produce electricity. Finally, the electricity is transferred into the electricity grid through the power lines.
