Detailed Solution

A geothermal energy experimental project in India is set up in Puga valley, Ladakh. Another notable experimental geothermal power plant is Parvati valley in Himachal Pradesh. Geothermal energy is a well-known non-conventional energy source. In geothermal energy, heat and electricity are produced using heat from the earth's interior. As one goes deeper into the ground, the temperature rises. That is where geothermal energy exists. Groundwater in these areas absorbs heat from rocks, becomes hot, and rises as steam. This steam is used to generate electricity by driving the turbines.
