Some moderately hot geothermal resources also exist in the Dakotas, along the Atlantic coast, and in Arkansas and Texas. Someday we may be able to use these resource too. Most geothermal energy is produced in four states--California, Nevada, Utah, and Hawaii.

However, the French beat us by almost 500 years, as records indicate they were tapping many uses of geothermal energy back in the 15th century.
