Note that geothermal energy is not - in general - considered a renewable energy. The source will loose energy over time.
That is not a problem for Iceland of course, since strong volcanic activity makes sources very reliable. If it's not causing earthquakes.
- ugh 15y agoSolar energy is also not forever and technically not renewable. The time horizon is what's interesting, that's what makes solar energy renewable. So what's the time horizon for geothermal energy? If it's more than a millenium I would have no problem calling geothermal energy renewable.
