Energy Part 2: Italy's Type of Energy

Italy's main energy source is geothermal energy, mainly the energy found in the fossil fuels. From the things found in those fuels, such as petroleum for transporting purposes such as importing and exporting goods, and natural gas for things like heating up homes. Italy also imports a bit of energy, about 35%, from countries such as Switzerland and France. In total, Italy has spent around 65 million on energy over the past 12 years. The emissions that the fossil fuels have emitted put Italy 17th in CO2 emissions in 2009. Italy also uses solar and wind energy, and has no nuclear plants.
