Correct Answer: Both statements are true.


Solution : The correct answer is (a) Both statements are true.

Statement 1 accurately states that geothermal energy is a reliable and consistent source of power. Unlike solar or wind energy, which are dependent on weather conditions, geothermal energy relies on the heat generated by the Earth's core, which remains relatively constant. This makes geothermal energy a reliable and consistent source of power throughout the year.

Statement 2 is also correct as it explains that geothermal power plants utilize the heat generated by the Earth's core to produce electricity. These power plants tap into geothermal reservoirs by drilling wells and extracting the hot water or steam to drive turbines and generate electricity.

Both statements provide accurate information about geothermal energy and its utilization for power generation.
