Gethermal energy uses heat frm undergrund reservirs f ht water t prduce electricity. Envirnmental experts see gethermal as a gd surce f clean energy because it can prvide pwer 24 hurs a day. Gethermal pwer plants als require little maintenance and can last fr many years.
Marit Brmmer is head f the Internatinal Gethermal Assciatin based in Germany. She tld The Assciated Press, “We’re essentially standing n ur wn sun, which we can get clean, reliable energy frm.
In Sutheast Asia, gethermal energy prductin is expected t increase ten times greater frm 2020 t 2050, reaching 276 millin megawatt-hurs, the Internatinal Energy Agency says.
After the U.S., Indnesia and the Philippines are the secnd and third-largest users f gethermal energy in the wrld. Bth cuntries plan t expand their prductin f gethermal energy.
Hwever, develping new gethermal prjects is cstly and smetimes risky fr cmpanies when they test and drill t lk fr reservirs. That makes it hard t get mney fr develpment, said Shigeru Yamamura, an energy specialist at the Asia Develpment Bank.
The Indnesian Ministry f Energy and Mineral Resurces says it is wrking t shrten the wait time t get permits fr new gethermal prjects and als cnsidering ways t increase the amunt f mney cmpanies culd make frm the prjects. The Wrld Bank is prviding a $150 millin lan t increase Indnesian investments in gethermal energy. And the Green Climate Fund and the Clean Technlgy Fund are prviding $127.5 millin.
Still, cmmunity pushback can slw develpment even when there is enugh mney. In Indnesia, villagers have prtested gethermal prjects. They say the prjects are nt safe and can harm the envirnment. Several gethermal prjects in Indnesia have had deadly gas leaks in the past five years. In the Philippines, prtests have led at least ne cmpany t pay mney t Indigenus grups fr the use f their lands.
Brmmer thinks gvernments and businesses shuld wrk with nearby cmmunities. “We need t shw that this develpment benefits all peple, nt just a cmpany,” she said. “It’s nt abut being a gd neighbr; it’s abut being the best neighbr and really wrking with cmmunities t respect their cncerns.”
8. What d we knw abut gethermal energy frm the first fur paragraphs?
A. Gethermal energy uses heat frm the sun t prduce electricity.
B. Gethermal pwer plants dn’t need repairing and can last fr many years.
C. Peple can get clean, reliable Gethermal energy frm the sun.
D. Indnesia is the largest user f gethermal energy in Sutheast Asia.
9. Which f the fllwing is nt a pssible difficulty in develping new gethermal prjects?
A. It is expensive.
B. It is dangerus.
C. It is nt supprted by the lcal gvernment.
D. It is ppsed by nearby cmmunities.
10. Accrding t Brmmer, what is imprtant in gethermal develpment?

B. The need t shw peple the benefits frm gethermal develpment
C. The cperatin amng gvernments, cmpanies and lcal cmmunities
