Sustainability of geothermal development to the attention of the world, considering that in 2050 the IEA estimates that geothermal energy will be utilized to meet the 1.7% of world energy needs, an increase of 45% of geothermal utilization in 2030. Discussion with the moderator Miklós Antics (France) and Jim Lawless (New Zealand) is presenting a speaker Professor Rahmat Witoelar, Chairman of Indonesia's National Climate Change Council, Chris Bromley representing the International Energy Agency (IEA), Paul Quinlivan from Sinclair Knight Merz (SKM), and Gudni Johannesson, Director of The Icelandic National Energy Authority. Much of the discussion centered on the discussion about the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM). Paul Quinlivan indicated that the global market for CDM is estimated to reach U.S. $ 18 billion until 2012, although the new earth absorbs heat from the figure is 0.4%. CDM programs for geothermal could still be improved. Today has been registered in the CDM nine geothermal projects and three projects are still in the process, all located in Indonesia. The complexity of the process and lack of resources for certification bodies, as well as uncertainty after the year 2012, a problem that must soon found a solution. Answer that, Professor Witoelar and World Bank representatives assured the panel that the market participant Certified Emissions Reductions (CER) will continue to exist, at least until 2020. In addition, there were attempts to streamline the process so it is easy to program the CDM project registration. [esdm] www.tenderoffer.biz
