Next-generation geothermal systems can access geothermal heat virtually anywhere, dramatically expanding the range of locations where geothermal is viable. There are two types of next-generation systems: Enhanced Geothermal Systems and Advanced Geothermal Systems.

Geothermal energy can directly provide heat for industrial processes by heating water, generating steam, and heating air. Most geothermal systems use a heat exchanger to transfer heat from the geothermal fluid to the facility.
