Geothermal heating and power plants

Description
Now you, comrade, can access energy life has used since the beginning. Volcanic vents may have spawned life billions of years ago, but now it can keep the proletariat warm and the lights on in the factories.

Geothermal energy is gaining popularity because it produces almost no pollution, releasing only trace gases from the Earth. Iceland produces nearly all its power from geothermal energy. Some old Soviet plants are still operational today.

In game, for balancing purposes, the plants are very expensive to build (1.5~2.5x more than coal) and require an extra team of engineers to monitor the complex systems, but they do not require fuel. The plants require a long tunneling process, so they take a long time to build (to represent the multi-km long plumbing deep underground). The power stations require deeper, more expensive drilling to get to hotter rock that can more efficiently run steam turbines.

This pack includes:
Large HP, PP (1200 GJ, 16.1 MW)
Medium HP, PP (800 GJ, 10.7 MW)
Small HP, PP (400 GJ, 5.4 MW)
Micro HP (200 GJ)

If you ask why Lenin is "controversial figure" you must return to primary school. Take some books and learn about history. And this game is city builder, not about and not about a tyrant, a murde.rer of many people.

"controversial figure" what the hell did Lenin do to be called like that? It is game about socialism and Lenin are main figure in this movement.

Great mod. its possible add some mechanicals for construction? not only on workers?

I love the Lenin picture displayed proudly as it should be.

Would be great if the heating plant had a direct water connection IMO. Currenly it's draining a nearby water substation, which is ineffective as it's clean water from a treatment plant. If the geotherm building allowed direct water connection, I could use less clean water like I do for industry.

Thorough thanks!

A version without the Lenin-Picvture would be great. I dont want to start a discussion about this controversial figure here, but i think like me, a lot of people like to make totally ficitional republics, and there it is kind of immersion-breaking.

There are spots for cranes.

Tunneling, rather drilling, would require special equipment not in the game

Probably should be added some vehicle slots during the construction phases because it looks like the plant is entirely built by hand. The tunneling phase might use excavators and cranes?

Captain_Pavlos, that is caused by one of many thigns: 1. You aren't providing both workers and engineers. 2. You aren't providing water (this limits production to like 10% IIRC). 3. Your power plant isn't properly connected to the energy grid. 4. You have no power demand.
