California's Geothermal Resource Potential
Energy Sources, 1978According to a U.S. Geological Survey estimate, recoverable hydrothermal energy in California may amount to 19,000 MW of electric power for a 30-year period. At present, a geothermal installation in the Geysers region of the state provides 502 MWe of capacity; an additional 1500 MWe of electric generating capacity is scheduled to be in operation in ...

Geothermal resources of Hachijojima
Geothermics, 2000Abstract Hachijojima is a gourd-shaped volcanic island in the Pacific Ocean. Nishiyama and Higashiyama volcanoes consist of basalt lava and associated pyroclastic rocks. A promising geothermal resource was found in south Higashiyama, associated with an uplift of Tertiary rocks consisting of mainly andesite lava and related pyroclastic rocks, overlain

Integrative Geothermal Resource Assessment
Proceedings, 2011The development of geothermal energy utilization for electricity production has suffered strong drawbacks with the recent events of induced seismicity occurred at the site of Basel (Switzerland) and Landau (Germany). Typically, the population only got aware of the local geothermal activities when being affected by vibrations and noise originating from ...

Geothermal resources in Bolivia
Geothermics, 1988In 1975 preliminary geothermal investigations were carried out in Bolivia by an Italian mission. The report (Marinelli, 1975) concluded that there was definitely a possibility of finding favourable areas for geothermal exploitation in Bolivia. In 1976 the Bolivian Electric Company (ENDE), the Bolivian Geological Service (GEOBOL), and the United Nations

Utilisation of geothermal resources
Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers - Energy, 2009For centuries, geothermal energy has been used for bathing, cooking and space heating. More recently, district heating, industrial processing and geothermal heat pumps have become part of the direct-use mix. Geothermal electric power generation began in Italy in 1904, with the first commercial plant operational in 1913.
