Abstract
Many students dont like physics because they feel far away from physics. Therefore physics must be made closer to students through contextual physics. This paper wants to describe the physical concepts that exist in geothermal power plants. The method used is descriptive. The results of the study show that there are many physics concepts that can be taught to students through observation and analysis of geothermal power plants such as the concepts of temperature, heat and displacement, electricity, energy and others. These physics concepts can be packaged in physics learning through the development of enrichment materials. It is hoped that there will be an increase in the mastery of concepts and literacy of students towards the surrounding natural resources.
