Answer : Italy

BONUS QUESTION
A geothermal reservoir field is in a saturated state. It has 40 MegaWatt thermal, heat
potential for 30 years development. The reservoir pressure and temperature are 10.5 bar and
180oC. Recovery Factor of the energy generated is 10%. Estimate the Electicity that can be
generated if the electricity conversion factor is 10%.
