A Reputed International Organization Stands Ready to Help Montserrat in its Geothermal Exploration Efforts

Montserrat is in line to receive major support in its exploration of geothermal energy.

The island becomes the newest member of the Global Geothermal Alliance (GGA) and the second English-speaking country to join the forty-seven-member grouping.

GGA is a coalition for action, to increase the use of geothermal energy, both in power generation and direct use of heat.

The GGA serves as a platform for dialogue, cooperation and coordinated action among the geothermal industry, policy makers and stakeholders worldwide.

The Alliance has a goal to achieve a five-fold growth in the installed capacity for geothermal power generation by 2030.

Director of Energy Kenrick Burke says the alliance could be instrumental in the development of geothermal energy locally.
