An Australian geothermal power developer says turning Vanuatu’s geothermal energy into electricity can boost economic activity.

Kuth Energy is finalising a deal with the Vanuatu government to establish at least two four megawatt geothermal power plants on the main island Efate to supply electricity.

The company’s Managing Director, David McDonald, says it hopes to support villagers wanting to take advantage of opportunities from a new sealed coastal ring road on Efate.
