5. GLOBAL GEOTHERMAL POTENTIAL
POWER GENERATION POTENTIAL (MWe)
Sources: ThinkGeoEnergy, Geothermal Energy Association, IGA, Chevron
Note: Installed Capacity of 2017 [2015], resource estimates combined (1999-2012) – IGA estimates a conservative total potential of 70,000
MW and with technology improvements (extended use of low heat and EGS resources) at around 140,000 MW in power generation
capacity.
