You're meant to place Thermal Plants in hotter areas, like near a thermal vent. At 20degrees it won't produce much power at all.

I have about 4 in a thermal vent in the Safe Shallows which goes to about 50Degrees, which are all connected via Power Transmitters back to my base. This plus two Solar Panels, that that's enough to power 2 Battery Chargers, 3 Power Cell chargers, two Moonpools, and two Water Filtration Machines which have a huge power requirement, with enough left over for Fabricating. With everything charging all at once I do lose power but I have like, 1,200 Energy in my base's reserves so it holds out for a while.
