In Reykjavík all homes and businesses are heated by geothermal energy. Steam and hot water is drawn from beneath the surface and distributed via underground pipelines.

Not directly. The sun's energy heats the ground, which in turn heats the air above it.
The sun's energy heats up the Earth's water.

Through the application of Hess's Law (of Constant Heat Summation) one can use heats of formation to find the overall energy release or requirement. The overall reaction energy is equal to the difference between total heats of formation of the products and the total heats of formation of the reactants.

Thermal energy
The energy conversions involved are: electrical energy from the hot plate is converted to thermal energy, which heats the water, leading to an increase in its internal energy. As the water heats up, some of this energy is lost to the surroundings as thermal energy.
