The document discusses the current status and potential of geothermal energy development globally. It provides statistics on the top geothermal countries by installed capacity as of November 2016, led by the United States, Philippines, and Indonesia. Analysis from the IFC estimates a total global investment potential in geothermal energy of $27 billion, with the largest opportunities in East Asia Pacific and Latin America. While current global installed geothermal capacity is around 13 GW, technical resource estimates indicate a potential of over 140 GW eventually achievable.
