It is clean, free and green. In other words, it uses the heat from deep below the earth to generate electricity that has no carbon dioxide emissions, which are harmful to the earth and are causing global warming.
Geothermal energy, and green technologies like it, are important because they are low-risk, low-impact energy sources for us to use without polluting the environment. Geothermal Technology is better for the environment and your home. There are many advantages of Geothermal Technology. The underground loop carry warranties of 25 to 50 years! According to the U.S. Department of Energy, if just 100,000 homes converted to a geothermal heating and cooling system, carbon dioxide emissions could be reduced by 880 million pounds.
