What is geothermal power?

Geothermal energy is heat that comes from inside Earth. In some places, such as Iceland, the heat is so close to the surface it can be easily used as an energy source. In other places holes must be drilled down through rocks to reach the heat. Geothermal energy is harnessed for cooking, bathing, space heating, electrical power generation, and other uses.
