Yea, I know this thought is crazy but I'd love to dig down til I hit steam and heat and power my Earth House with the energy produced. Unfortunately here in Alberta I am only aware of 4 locations in the province where the temperature of the earth is hot enough near the surface to actually produce steam.
Belco's Green Dream Machine-A power generator almost the size of a football pitch will be sunk in the sea off Bermuda under ground-breaking green energy plans. Belco chiefs yesterday revealed how they intend to capture ocean currents to initially provide nearly ten per cent of the Island's electricity needs.
Department of Energy-Geothermal Energy Site.
Geobacterspecies are of interest because of their novel electron transfer capabilities, impact on the natural environment and their application to the bioremediation of contaminated environments and harvesting electricity from waste organic matter.
Great Brook Enterprises -Micro-Hydro, geothermal, and more.
Is steam power in your future?-This excellent introduction on steam by author Skip Goebel provides answers on its use as a heat source or electricity generator. Mr Goebel states that he is working on an home based energy system which he will release once it is perfected.

Ormat-The revolutionary ORMAT ® Energy Converter is the basis for dozens of geothermal power plants ranging up to over 130 MW.
Using tap water to power your mobile phone-A team led by Professor Daniel Kwok and Professor Larry Kostiuk from the University of Alberta, Edmonton, Canada, has developed the first new way to generate electricity since 1839!
