Answer:

FALSE

Step-by-step explanation:

Geothermal energy can be use to form electricity like other sources of energy.

In this case of geothermal energy first of all steam is produced with the help of thermal energy recovered by the geothermal energy. This steam is taken to high pressure which is used to operate the turbine.

Now this turbine will convert the mechanical energy received by steam into electrical energy.

So here this type of energy sources are used in several countries for the electricity production
