Geothermal energy – untapped potential in Poland
Where does geothermal energy come from?
What is Poland's geothermal potential? First, it is worth considering where geothermal energy comes from. In the case of geothermal energy, energy comes from the interior of the earth and is stored in rocks or water. How does this happen? The most important sources of geothermal energy are solar radiation (heats the interior of the earth), the decay of radioactive isotopes in the earth's crust, and primary heat (it has been in the interior of the earth since its formation).
