best_answer

Energy stored inside the earth in form of thermal energy is called geothermal energy. Due to geological changes the lava present in the core of the earth is pushed towards the surface of the earth thus creating places having extremely high temperature called hot spots.

When water comes in contact with these hot spots high pressure steam is formed which can be used to generate electricity.
