Geothermal energy refers to the renewable energy derived from heat generated and stored within the Earth. It involves harnessing the naturally occurring heat from the Earth's interior to produce electricity or provide direct heating and cooling for various applications. This energy originates from the radioactive decay of minerals and the residual heat from the Earth's formation. Geothermal energy can be accessed through geothermal power plants or geothermal heat pumps.
