Georgsson and Fridleifsson 12 Geothermal energy in the world The “Workshop for Decision Makers on Geothermal Projects in Central America” was held in San Salvador in late November 2006 (Fridleifsson and Henriquez, 2006). The fifty participants in the 6 day event were mainly from the four countries in Central America most active in geothermal development, i.e. Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, and Nicaragua, and some of them were from the highest level. The Workshop was a sound success. In its conclusions, it says “the importance of local geothermal energy resources and their possible potential in increased power production in the region is emphasized, along with the minimal environmental impact of geothermal, and the need for increased training and regional technical cooperation in this field.” Figure 6 shows most of the participants of the workshop. FIGURE 6: Participants in the first UNU-GTP Workshop in Central America in 2006 With geothermal development in Central America at a more advanced stage compared to East Africa, it has not been necessary to put the same emphasis on surface exploration in the Short Courses. So the topics have differed from one to another. The first one was titled “Short Course on Geothermal Development in Central America: Resource Assessment and Environmental Management”,a week- long event, and held in El Salvador in late November 2007. In addition to lectures (Fridleifsson et al., 2007) and discussions of the subjects, there were practical exercises on reservoir resource assessment of geothermal fields in several countries, and in environmental management planning for specific geothermal fields. Local participants were 45 + 8 lecturers, with additional international lecturers coming from Iceland, Kenya and the Philippines (Tables 5 and 6). The third event in Central America was delayed to 2009. The two week long “Short Course on Surface Exploration for Geothermal Resources” was held in October 2009 in El Salvador. It was a shorter version of the courses that had been held in East Africa 2007-2009, with the main emphasis on geophysics and chemistry of thermal fluids, and aimed at young earth scientists in the region (Georgsson et al., 2009). The last day was co-participation in the “Central American Geothermal Workshop”, a cooperative event between LaGeo, the International Geothermal Association (IGA) and UNU-GTP, intended to highlight geothermal development in Central America. The Short Course reached a broader audience than the first two with participation from the East Caribbean Region. Similarly, with the next event, “Short Course on Geothermal Drilling, Resource Development, and Power Plants“, a week long course given in January 2011, the UNU-GTP reached for the first time to countries in South America (Georgsson et al., 2011). The topic also proved to be very interesting to many private companies in the geothermal business in the region, reflected in their increased participation, even at their own cost. This is a trend we are seeing continuing with the current event.Figure 7 shows the participants of the Short Course in 2011.PDF Image | GEOTHERMAL TRAINING PROGRAMME LaGeo
