Geothermal energy is a clean, constant and inexhaustible energy that aids to reduce the fossil fuels dependence for energy production. The energy supply of the Canary Islands currently depends on more than 95% of fossil fuel sources, with geothermal research constituting a strategic action. According to the National Integrated Energy and Climate Plan, by 2025, 15 MW of geothermal power will be installed for electricity production and this figure will double by 2030, taking advantage of the Canary Islands being home of the largest medium-high temperature geothermal resource in Spain due to its volcanic nature. This project aims to develop a multiscale electromagnetic Imaging of La Palma Island Geothermal System. It is a multidisciplinary project in cooperation with Multiscale Geophysical Imaging of La Palma Island Geothermal System.
GEOTHERPAL (TED2021-131882B-C42) is funded by the Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities through the State Agency of Research (MCIN/AEI/10.13039/501100011033) and the European Union (“NextGenerationEU”/PRTR).
