Where is the Geothermal Potential?

 

According to the Geothermal Education Office Geothermal power could serve 100% of the electrical needs of 39 countries (over 620,000,000 people) in Africa, Central/ South America and the Pacific.

 

Currently Australia, Azores, China, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Ethiopia, Guadeloupe, Guatemala, Iceland, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Kamchatka, Kenya, Mexico, New Zealand, Nicaragua, Philippines, Portugal, Taiwan, Thailand, Tibet, Turkey, United States and Zambia are generating electricity using geothermal power.

 

This is a marvellous slide show which is an excellent introduction to Geothermal Energy. http://geothermal.marin.org/GEOpresentation/
