Afternoon Singhie,
As a Mechanical engineer, the idea of geothermal fascinates me. Particularly as I was married to an Icelandic lass and heard the tales of the Icelanders not having to pay for heating or hot water, as it was to all intents and purposes free to generate.
That is a completely different scenario to what it is possible to achieve in the UK.
In order to generate steam, a geothermal well would need to be over two miles or three kilometers deep. That is of course not allowing for the temperature drop as the heated water travels to ground level.
As we are not parked on top of several active volcanos, the idea of geothermal in the UK is just that. I nice idea.
