Geoscience BC Releases Study Results of Economic Viability of Geothermal Resources in British Columbia (Geoscience BC - News Release)

An assessment of 18 sites resulted in an estimated total capacity of 400 MW

Geothermal exploration has occurred in British Columbia for a number of years. Currently however, no electricity is produced in British Columbia from geothermal sources.

To better understand the economic viability of geothermal energy in British Columbia, Geoscience BC and partner BC Hydro retained Kerr Wood Leidal Associates Ltd. (KWL) in January 2015, who with its partner GeothermEx Inc., a GRC Member company, undertook a high level technical and economic assessment using publicly available information for 18 specified geothermal sites around the province.
