It is sometimes possible to generate electricity using the high temperatures found deep in the earth.
Types
This section has not been filled in yet.
Geography
Major limitation
In most parts of the world, you have to drill very deep to reach high enough temperatures. [QUANTIFICATION needed] This usually makes geothermal electricity not viable. The exception is certain "hotspots" around the world. [Map needed]
Earthquakes
Unknown [RESEARCH needed]
