How Geothermal Steam Generates Electricity

Today, Brent talks about making electricity with high pressure steam.

Instead of sending steam into the ground, Brent shows us how to extract it by a process called Geothermal. The process extracts heat energy below earth's surface and uses it above the surface with a steam turbine. It all starts with Lava.

Take a look at Brent's demonstration to see where the steam comes from and the demonstration on steam moving from underground to the grid.

If you have any steamy questions that you want Brent to answer, email him at steamculture@wareinc.com. Be sure to join us next Friday for the latest on Steam Culture.
