Geothermal power capacity

"This map shows, for each grid cell, the Capacity installed [MW] by potential Binary ORC and Flash Power Plants. The maps refer to:
  • base case scenario;
  • upside scenario;
  • up up side scenario.
This layer is part of the Geothermal Atlas for Africa developed within the LEAP-RE project"
