There are also places in the US with boiling water at the surface. I live near one of those places so always curious about geothermal. There's a spot near my house in a creek bed where snow always melts even in deep winter so apparently I have some potential heat source. Our well water is cold though.

- AlotOfReading 6mo agoYou don't necessarily have to choose one or the other. The Blue lagoon in Iceland is a famous example. The water comes from a power plant nearby. You're not required to site them that close either, because of how regional the conditions usually are. A couple miles plus or minus doesn't change things too much.
