Part 2 is a review of the geology and geothermal energy development in the following countries, which are currently commercially producing electric power from geothermal steam: United States, Iceland, Italy, Japan, Mexico, New Zealand, and Russia. Six other countries should have geothermal energy production in a few years, and at least 19 others are in the investigative stages. Current economics and governmental legislation in the United States are summarized. A select bibliography on the geology and exploration for geothermal energy in significant areas of the world is included.
