What is the purpose of a cooling tower in a Geothermal powerplant?
It helps the turbine move faster.
It eases the production of electricity by cooling the whole powerplant.
It helps the steam to go back into liquid form (water).
It prevents heat from scattering throughout the power plant.

Which statement is TRUE about a geothermal powerplant?
Geothermal energy is a sustainable energy source.
A geothermal power can be successful almost anywhere.
Initial costs in the construction of a geothermal power plant is low.
There is no risk of the release of hazardous substances during drilling.
30sS9ES –IIIc-d-29 - Q10
The following are advantages of having a geothermal powerplant, EXCEPT:
It is a reliable source of electricity.
It provides free hot water production.
It affects surface stability that can trigger earthquakes due to hydraulic fracturing.
It is more environmental-friendly than conventional fuel source such as coal.
