Geothermal Power Projects Planned for Jammu + Kashmir

Jan 25 2011

The Central Government of India is planning to utilize geothermal resources that are available in plenty in the State of Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) for a 100 MW geothermal energy power generation.

According to Farooq Abdullah, Union Minister for New and Renewable Energy, the Central Government would offer full support and assistance to the State Government for developing the RE resources projects. He mentioned that they planned to launch a 100 MW geothermal energy project in Reasi and in other areas.

J&K has a huge reserve of geothermal energy so far untapped. Puga in Ladakh, Rajouri and Reasi districts have been identified as potential sources of geothermal energy. Experts have described these places as excellent energy sources with a capacity to generate electricity all the year around. The Central Government is trying to organize tie-ups with Iceland for harnessing geothermal energy in the State as Iceland is considered to be the world leader in geothermal renewable energy.
