Part 5/10:
In Niǒ, a pioneering geothermal power plant was constructed over three years and began operating recently. By utilizing the underground heat without drilling new deep wells—thanks to the region's existing hot spring sources—this project exemplifies an energy model that balances environmental preservation with energy needs. Power from this plant is not confined locally; it supplies renewable electricity across the Tohoku region, contributing to the national efforts to reduce carbon emissions.
