Which means that the compressor consumes less electricity and needs to be pumped underground There are fewer wells, which means that the length of the pipeline and the volume of alcohol refrigerant will be smaller than in Russia. Therefore, all other things being equal, the cost of obtaining a kilowatt of thermal energy is higher in the Russian Federation than in Europe. But this does not mean that heat pumps should not be used in the Russian Federation, just that the capital investment will be higher. They are recommended for use where gas supply is not possible. Geothermal energy in other countries According to the World Bank, from 1 to 1 GW. However, only one of the world's known geothermal energy reserves is currently used for electricity generation, and the total installed capacity of these installations is moible number data only gigawatts. The United States and China actively use geothermal energy. These countries are now the undisputed leaders in this regard, but Japan has caught up with them. The Philippines, Indonesia and New Zealand have successfully used geothermal resources for energy production. The United States is funding Nicaragua to build a geothermal power plant that should meet the country's energy needs. Part of the success of geothermal power plants is still due to the mild climate conditions in these countries. But there is also the example of Iceland, a northern country with a harsh climate. The world's first industrial-scale geothermal power plant was started there in 2010. It is built on a crater and draws its energy from the Earth's magma (at this point, the magma is as close to the surface as possible.
