Oil prices, economic recovery and clean energy

The need to use more geothermal energy

Between the lines

Armando González

...Costa Rica should seriously consider the use of clean energy sources available in national soil and this is not only about more hydroelectric development. The country enjoys ideal conditions for geothermal exploitation, but the main sources are located in lands destined to be National Parks. In the name of preservation, we act with no sense by generating electricity with fossil fuels that are more contaminating and maybe one day, will not be affordable.
