>>Researchers at the University of Oklahoma have been investigating whether they can produce geothermal energy from retired oil and gas wells with the help of a federal grant. Geothermal uses Earth's natural subsurface heat to produce energy. It can produce electricity with steam rising from deep below ground or use fluid pumped from the formations to heat nearby buildings.<<
