Ans. to #1

Geopressurized reservoirs consist of high-pressure hot brine (salt water) in deep underground reservoirs made of permeable rock that traps the water under an impermeable layer of cap rock; often natural gas is trapped also.

Hot-water reservoirs are geothermal heated underground pools of water and steam, which are the most useful form of reservoir for electricity production.

Ans. to #2

The geothermal gradient refers to the increasing temperature at increasing depths within the earth, which occurs worldwide.

Ans. to #3

Geothermal energy is used for warm water bathing pools, producing electrical power, heating a greenhouse, and providing hot water heating for all the buildings.
