I live in an area that is very active with Geo-Thermal processes. The water temperature reaches 104 degrees. This isnt enough to utilize for energy purposes. However, since it is already hot, how difficult would it be to increase the temperature to levels capable of driving a generator.

If solar panels were connected to operate a Tesla coil, would it be possible for the Tesla Coil's discharge to heat the water to the required temperature?

I know that trying to channel a Tesla Coils energy is futile at this time, but if the discharge was applied directly to the hot water pipes, would the energy contain enough to heat up the water beyond 104 degrees?

also, would 104 degrees be enough to perhaps operate a Sterling Engine? Since the design of the Sterling is to work on temperature variations, it seems as though it wouldnt be to difficult to use the Geo-Thermal in combination with surface water from near-by streams.

Any thoughts on this?
 
there are many ways to increase the heat. how about static discharge from the air, how about pressure (the more pressure the higher the temp), how about we just excite all of the water molecules. I would say there are no limits to the different ways you can heat up water.
 
The concepts are great, and I can see thepotential for developing alternative energy sources, my problem is finding others to go forward with trying to experiment with these ideas.

Time is a constraint as well. Even if I posted an ad for others to join in on experimentation, my time is limited as well.

Keep trying for the lottery, but the state still keeps selecting the wrong numbers.
