The Geothermal Congress for Latin America and the Caribbean to take place in less than a week in San Jose, Costa Rica will feature a set of high profile industry speakers, nine regional governments and five government ministers.

The inaugural Geothermal Congress for Latin America & the Caribbean (GEOLAC, September 17-18) will convene in Costa Rica in less than one week.

GEOLAC is a new regional conference which reflects the emergence of geothermal as a long-term and sustainable source of baseload power for Latin America and the Caribbean. Across the region, the geothermal opportunity is significant but, in all but a few markets, under-deployed. Against this backdrop, GEOLAC will gather the key stakeholders – governments, utilities, multilaterals, developers, capital providers, engineers, and other providers of expertise – to explore opportunities for increased geothermal output, tackle obstacles to growth, promote the exchange of knowledge and expertise, and facilitate vital new meetings and relationships.

The event features a set of high profile industry speakers, nine regional governments are represented and five government ministers will be speaking at the event.
