Geothermal heat is a significant provider of energy in a small number of countries, all located in regions subject to earthquakes and volcanoes. This Geothermal Market Research report provides an excellent introduction and understanding of the three technologies for exploiting geothermal energy; power generation, GSHPs (ground source heat pumps), direct use (excluding GSHPs). It also looks at the industry’s development and use of technology, power generation, efficiency and location of resources. It provides an overview of geothermal energy, capacity and utilisation. The geothermal power industry is reviewed looking at the power operators and equipment manufacturers. Geothermal revenue and costs are analysed, including generation, construction and equipment costs. The report looks at country use and development of geothermal energy with an analysis of the major market places – North America, Central America & Caribbean, Europe, Asia, Africa. A significant new geothermal technology is also reviewed for the first time, GSHPs (ground source heat pumps). This technology made its debut in the last five years and is already the largest single exploiter of geothermal energy. The principles on which it operates are completely different from power generation or all other forms of direct use of geothermal heat. A listing of major geothermal manufacturers with address and telephone and fax numbers where available is provided at the end of the Geothermal Market Report.

With our Geothermal Market Research Report you can gain insight into a small but important niche market, understand the locations where geothermal energy development will take place and look at investment opportunities in the geothermal country markets to sell plant and services to.
