Renewable Energy Part 2 Quiz

Renewable Energy Part 2 Quiz. One of the most interesting stories in renewable energy comes from a small town in Iceland called Reykjavik. Back in the early 1900s, people there started noticing hot water bubbling up from the ground naturally. Engineers decided to pipe that heat directly into homes instead of burning coal or oil for warmth. It worked so well that almost every building in the city now uses this underground warmth for heating. Geothermal power, which taps into the steady heat deep inside the Earth, became a normal part of life there. Homes stay cosy in winter without extra fuel costs, and the air stays cleaner because there is no smoke from burning anything. That simple idea from over a century ago still shows how reliable and quiet this kind of energy can be when the Earth itself provides the source.
