Geothermal. The United States generates more electricity from geothermal energy than any other country in the world. Geothermal energy is a domestic energy source with relatively benign effects on the environment.
Of course most people would like to see a more environmentally friendly mix of energy sources transformed into electrical energy but at present fossil fuel sources are the mainstay of electricity in Australia. The mix of energy sources to convert into electrical energy is changing. Hydro. Electrical energy created from water stored in huge dams. The energy created by the water released from these dams is transformed into electricity by hydro-electric turbines and generators. The most famous source of hydroelectric power is in the Snowy Mountains, NSW.
