I am a gigantic fan of geothermal. Why does Hawaii or any of the seismicly active Pacific Coast States need to import one drop of oil?

Tell us again how one can drive a car or truck on geothermal.

“Tell us again how one can drive a car or truck on geothermal.”

I guess you’d use the geothermal to generate electricity, then the electricity to get hydrogen, then the hydrogen to run the car.

Doesn’t have to be a fuel cell vehicle either. You can burn hydrogen in an internal combustion engine too.
