Geothermal energy and the environment: The global experience

  • Pasqualetti, M.J.

Abstract

The conflict between energy supply and the environment is one of the critical issues of our time, and geothermal energy, often touted as plentiful and environmentally benign, has received a measure of attention as one possible answer to the problem. Some environmental issues, however, have been encountered during the development of the world's geothermal resources and these have had an impact on the speed of development. The environmental problems at each of the world's geothermal generating stations are discussed in this paper.
