{'geothermal energy': [2, 0, 0, 0], 'natural energy': [1, 0, 0, 0], 'himachal pradesh': [6, 1, 6, 4], 'hot springs': [1, 0, 0, 0], 'thermal energy': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'hydro energy': [1, 0, 0, 0], 'biomass energy': [1, 0, 0, 1], 'manikaran': [1, 0, 1, 1]}

The correct answer is option 1: Geothermal Energy. Geothermal energy is the source of natural energy in the hot springs at Manikaran in Himachal Pradesh. Geothermal energy is derived from the heat generated by the Earth`s core. In this case, the hot springs at Manikaran are fueled by the geothermal activity of the region. Geothermal energy is a renewable and sustainable source of energy that can be harnessed for various purposes such as heating and electricity generation. It is a clean source of energy that does not produce greenhouse gas emissions or contribute to air pollution. Unlike other options mentioned, such as biomass energy, thermal energy or hydro energy, geothermal energy specifically refers to the natural heat energy produced by the Earth.
