The diagram below shows how geothermal energy is used to produce electricity. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.

The provided diagram vividly illustrates the way in which geothermal energy is converted into electricity.

Overall

, it is clearly observable that

this

process consists of five distinct steps, commencing with pumping down the

water

and culminating with generating electricity.

To begin

with, the cold

water

in

this

procedure acts as the starting material, which should be pumped down a distance of 4.5 km through the injection well.

Then

, the temperature of the

water

rises when it passes a horizontal geothermal area, where hot rocks play the role of the source of energy. In the subsequent step, the hot

water

must be pumped up through the production well, which is as long as the injection well;

however

, its width is more than that of the injection well. Once

this

phase has been done, the

water

is

then

condensed within a chamber, leading to the production of steam. The final step is that the produced steam in the previous stage is utilized in the turbine, making the generation of electricity by the generator feasible.
