Probably cost. Way cheaper to simply intake and output water than too build and maintain a ground loop heat exchange.

    I did some shitty mental math and its cost and land and overall feasibility. There is so much consistent heat a power plant would overwhelm the thermal gradient. To offset this you would need increadible land masses and pipe networks. Twas a nice passing thought.
