8.2 Geothermal Resource Potential in Guadeloupe 8.3 Geothermal Projects in Guadeloupe Guadeloupe’s geothermal resources are located in the Bouillante geothermal field, which is located on the western coast of Basse Terre. Guadeloupe has a confirmed geothermal resource of 30 MW102 and an estimated geothermal potential of 3,500 MW.103 There has been significant geothermal exploration of Guadeloupe’s Bouillante geothermal field. The French Geological and Mining Survey (Bureau de Recherches Géologiques et Minières, or BRGM) began surface studies in the 1960s. From 1970 to 2001, seven exploration wells were drilled, which resulted in three production wells (BO-2, BO-5, and BO-6). Going forward, Géothermie Bouillante S.A., the publicly owned company responsible for developing the geothermal project, plans to drill two to three more exploratory wells in the northern part of Bouillante Bay. These wells will be drilled as part of the effort to develop a third geothermal power plant.104 Guadeloupe has an installed capacity of 15 MW of geothermal generation consisting of a 4.7 MW plant, Bouillante 1, and a 10 MW plant, Bouillante 2. Géothermie Bouillante, the plant operator and project developer, is planning to increase Guadeloupe’s geothermal generation capacity by building a third plant in the near future.105 The geothermal project in Guadeloupe has been developed in two phases, each with a different project structure. The first phase included private sector participation, whereas the second phase only included participation from government- owned companies. Even though the private sector is no longer involved in the development of Guadeloupe’s geothermal resources, it played a key role in their development by providing the technical expertise needed to explore Guadeloupe’s geothermal resources. In this section, we present the project structure for each of the project’s phases. 102. EDF Archipel Guadeloupe, “EDF Guadeloupe Presentation” (June 22, 2009). 103. Erouscilla P.
