Wonder how much energy is used pumping water up a mile versus heating surface water about 100 degrees.

Geothermal using a 2 stage compressor is a whole lot more efficient (in excess of 500% in some cases) and cheaper (doesn't require a 6000'+ hole), too.

I worked on a geothermal well or two.
Bump a hole a mile deep and get water @55F.
Geothermal does not heat the building, it offers a buffer.
I do not see their temperature expectations manifesting without a nearby caldera.

Al Gore(Alta Rock Energy Inc.) did this in Switzerland and got sued for the earthquakes it caused.
Then they tried it in N. California and encountered a geologic anomaly(oil&gas).
California quickly denied the permit for the deep fracture procedure after they learned of the Swiss lawsuit.
