Asimov in his novels had Trantor, the planet girding capital city largely extracted it's energy from geo thermal sources. In his novels, they would bury heat exchange rods to tap this power.
Interesting to see this potentially close to fruition. Now if only all roofs, roads and windows could extract solar power...
