Tricky-Astronaut on February 21, 2026 7:17 pm Geothermal power plants throw away most of the energy as waste heat, just like most other thermal power plants (nuclear, coal, OCGT). I don’t see this being competitive when solar PV and wind are mass produced and nuclear has the same role. This will go the way of solar thermal. However, geothermal heating has potential.
