This is Geothermal [VIDEO]
Your access to Member Features is limited.
Canada is the only country on the Pacific Ring of Fire that doesn’t use geothermal energy on a commercial scale. More than 30 years ago, B.C. was instructed to investigate geothermal as a cheaper, more environmentally friendly alternative to building mega hydro dams, such as the Site C dam on the Peace River — but that never happened.
DeSmog Canada’s Carol Linnitt recently travelled to Iceland to learn more about geothermal energy, how it’s used commercially and what potential Canada has to bring this renewable resource online.
Carol’s video has been viewed nearly 50,000 times in the past week. Check it out — and please consider sharing! (Music by Jon Luc Hefferman.)

The Energy Central Power Industry Network is based on one core idea - power industry professionals helping each other and advancing the industry by sharing and learning from each other.
If you have an experience or insight to share or have learned something from a conference or seminar, your peers and colleagues on Energy Central want to hear about it. It's also easy to share a link to an article you've liked or an industry resource that you think would be helpful.
