Abstract The results of a recent world survey of low temperature geothermal energy utilization are reported. It was found that 44 countries have low temperature geothermal resources, 24 countries are involved in exploration, 12 countries are utilizing low temperature geothermal energy and 9 counties have carried out assessment studies. The survey showed that about 8700 MW thermal (above 15°C reference temperature) were installed at the end of 1980.
