International Geothermal Conference, Reykjavík, Sept. 2003 Session #2 (Table 1). In general, a high percentage of Fellows have remained in the energy industry. Of the 44 UNU/GTP Fellows, some 31 or 70% are still active in the geothermal industry in Central America and Mexico. El Salvador and Costa Rica have the highest retention with 16 and 9 active Fellows (Figure 2). Honduras, which has not developed its geothermal resources during the last 25 years, has the smallest number of Fellows with none currently working in the geothermal industry. Number of UNU Fellows active in geothermal- Total 27 23 Guatemala El Salvador Honduras Nicaragua Costa Rica 16 Mexico 9 1 0 Figure 2: Number of UNU/GTP Fellows active in geothermal. While Mexico has the largest installed capacity (755 MW) compared to the Central American countries with 407 MW, and has made significant advances in the development of geothermal resources over the last 25 years, Mexico has made only limited use of the UNU/GTP. Mexico’s Centro de Capacitación (Training Center) in Morelia-Michoacán, part of Comisión Federal de Electricidad (CFE) offers geothermal training courses aimed at Latin America. Short training courses are offered throughout the year covering the Geosciences, Economics, Reservoir Engineering and Engineering Technology. 3 AcademicbackgroundofUNU/GTPFellowsfromCentral America and Mexico UNU/GTP Fellows come from a wide variety of academic backgrounds ranging from geology, chemistry and physics to most of the engineering disciplines (mechanical, civil, electrical and chemical engineering – Figure 3). Geologists are in the majority with 32% (or 10) of the 31 currently active UNU/GTP Fellows, and are concentrated in Costa Rica. An academic foundation in geology proves to be the most versatile preparation to assume a wide variety of roles after the UNU/GTP. Geologists have joined electrical and mechanical engineers as geothermal reservoir engineers. Geologists and physicists often work in the area of geophysics. The second most prevalent academic background is chemistry, chemical and mechanical engineering with 17% (5 each). The engineers work in diverse areas such as drilling technology, geothermal utilization, engineering of geothermal processes and environmental studies, while the chemists are working in chemical work (Figure 3).
