Nunavut Territory (CanGEA)
The Nunavut Geothermal Feasibility study is the first phase in identifying potential geothermal resources to help offset the use of diesel for electricity & heat in the isolated communities of Nunavut. The objectives of this study were to gather existing data, identify data gaps, and conduct a geothermal resource assessment based on the existing data. The framework, methodology, and deliverables of the assessment are designed around the reporting guidelines that were set by the Canadian Geothermal Energy Association (CanGEA) for the Canadian National Geothermal Database (CNGD) [Canadian Geothermal Code Committee, 2010].
