Geothermal energy in Fiji falls between 150-200 degrees and is found primarily on the islands of Vanua Levu and Viti Levu. The geothermal areas can be used for direct heating, electricity generation, or geothermal heat pumps. Developing geothermal energy in Fiji provides clean, renewable energy and reduces reliance on fossil fuels.

1. TOPIC: GEOTHERMAL ENERGY
IN FIJI
ASSIGNMENT: 01
PRESENTATION

3. DEFINE GEOTHERMAL ENERGY
Geothermal energy is heat energy generated
and stored in the Earth.

4. WHERE IT BEGAN

7. Which category of temperature does
Fiji’s geothermal energy falls in ?
• The average temper of geothermal in Fiji falls
between
150 degrees to 200 degree.
To achieve this constant temperature for
production a minimum, depth of 2500 ft.

10. HAVESTING GEOTHERAL ENERGY IN
FIJI
• Geothermal energy in Fiji is found the main
islands Vanua levu and Viti levu. They have
active geothermal places in Fiji, Vanua balavu,
Levuka and other places of Fiji a commonly
know one is in Savusavu, which is in urban
area, tourist visiting place that is currently
under development that can be a great place
to generate power from geothermal energy.

11. PLACES OF GEOTHERMAL ENERGY IN
FIJI

16. Why geothermal energy in Fiji ?

17. USERS OF GEOTHERMAL ENERGY
Direct Use and District Heating Systems which use
hot water from springs or reservoirs near the
surface.
Electricity generation in a power plant requires
water or steam at very high temperature (300 to
700 degrees Fahrenheit). Geothermal power plants
are generally built where geothermal reservoirs are
located within a mile.
Geothermal heat pumps use stable ground or
water temperatures near the earth's surface to
control building temperatures above ground.

18. SIGNIFICANCE OF GEOTHERMAL
ENERGY
Geothermal energy, one of the most promising
among renewable energy sources, has proven
to be reliable, clean and safe, and therefore, its
use for power production, and heating and
cooling is increasing.
It is a power source that produces electricity
with minimal environmental impact.

19. CONCLUSION
A geothermal heating system can fully replace a
natural gas or oil heating system. In
combination with a photovoltaic system, you
can reduce the annual costs by more than 60
percent and also reduce CO2 emissions.
Investing in a geothermal system is profitable
both from and economical and an
environmental perspectives.
