Title | Development of a geothermal direct use project in Uganda |
---|---|
Context Uganda is developing a Geothermal Policy and Legislation as a tool to utilize renewable sources of energy and address climate change challenges. The first Geothermal Policy and Legislation draft was produced with support from CTCN in 2016. The draft has since been reviewed to produce a final version which has been validated and is awaiting a Regulatory Impact Assessment report before it is submitted to Cabinet for approval. Once approved, the Parliament of Uganda will proceed to draft the Geothermal Act. Meanwhile, the results of the current geothermal studies suggest that Uganda's geothermal systems are medium to low temperature areas. The resource, therefore, can be used for both electricity production using binary systems and direct uses of geothermal heat in industry and agriculture. |
