Around the Corner: Geothermal Congress for Latin America and the Caribbean

The inaugural Geothermal Congress for Latin America and the Caribbean (GEOLAC) will convene on September 17-18, 2012, at the Real Inter-Continental Hotel in San Jose, Costa Rica.

The event features a set of high profile industry speakers, nine regional governments are represented and five government ministers will be speaking at the event. The list of speakers includes Latin America and the Caribbean experts from Bolivia, Costa Rica, Dominica, Guadeloupe, Guatemala, Nevis, Nicaragua, and St. Lucia, among others.

Description: GEOLAC is a new regional conference which reflects the emergence of geothermal as a long-term and sustainable source of baseload power for Latin America and the Caribbean. Across the region, the geothermal opportunity is significant but, in all but a few markets, under-deployed. Against this backdrop, GEOLAC will gather the key stakeholders – governments, utilities, multilaterals, developers, capital providers, engineers, and other providers of expertise – to explore opportunities for increased geothermal output, tackle obstacles to growth, promote the exchange of knowledge and expertise, and facilitate vital new meetings and relationships.
