Taiwan is located at the margin of young orogenic belt which the Philippine Sea plate collides with Asian continental margin. It is characteristic that the geothermal manifestations and hot springs are widely distributed in the island and has great potential to explore and develop the geothermal heat for power plant. A 3 MW pilot power plant, therefore, was constructed in 1981 and terminated in 1993 in the Chingshui area of Ilan, northeastern Taiwan. Recently, about 1 GWe and 33 GWe of installed capacities have been assessed for traditional and deep geothermal resources, separately.
