gjeotermik

gjeotermik

Geothermal energy is energy from the inner core of the earth where molten rock heats the water just below the surface of the earth, or from the sun's energy trapped just below the earth's surface. This energy, hot water or steam can then be distributed to heat buildings. It is the reason we have natural spas. This natural heat has been used to heat buildings and water supplies since Roman times. See also ground source heat pump.
