Contribution of UNU/GTP training to geothermal development in Central and Eastern European countries
Geothermal energy represents the biggest potential and has in many countries the most promising prospects for development among all renewable energy sources. It is expected that its role and level of use will steadily increase, especially in light of the new challenges to be met globally, i.e. ratio...
