摘要

Often called "the forgotten renewable," geothermal power, which draws heat from deep beneath the earth's surface and converts it into electricity, is an underutilized resource with huge potential. In May, a coalition of trade and business associations from the U.S., Europe, Canada, Chile and Australia signed an international agreement to promote geothermal power. The aim is to eventually generate 300,000 megawatts globally, enough to power some 300 million homes in the U.S. "Geothermal is often not recognized by policies around the world," says Karl Gawell, executive director of the Geothermal Energy Association. In the U.S., fossil fuels received about $40 billion in funds from the Department of Energy, nuclear $85 billion, and renewable only $17 billion from 1948 to 2007. And solar and wind have received more tax incentives than geothermal, making it doublv overlooked.
