AGEA is the national industry association for the Australian Geothermal
Energy Industry - 
 geothermal energy has the potential to increasingly provide both:
  • A low-cost, emissions-free baseload of reliable and secure energy for the national market over the next decade; and
  • A reliable, low-cost source of heat to drive energy efficiency and industrial applications.
AGEA and it's members works with all Australian Governments, the academic community, relevant scientific organisations and the media to promote information about the progress of the industry and its capabilities.
Mixed Reaction to Climate Change Statement from Australia's World Class Geothermal Energy Industry
Friday, July 23, 2010
"The Prime Minister's announcement today of the Government's Climate Change agenda produced a mixed reaction from Australia's emerging geothermal industry". "The industry is disappointed with the absence of any further certainty around how other generation and direct use projects from geothermal energy will develop without further funding commitments - no new funding was announced. The industry has been warning for sometime that new projects will fail to get off the ground without new funding commitments from the Government."

Australia's World Class Geothermal Energy Industry
Tuesday, July 13, 2010
"Australia has a world class geothermal resource and our industry is actively collaborating with the global industry as part of the effort to develop the component technologies that will mainstream all forms of geothermal energy across the world. Many of our Australian industry and research leaders are also leaders in the international arena."

The Earth is constantly generating naturally occurring heat. This heat is known as geothermal heat, and can be used to produce electricity.

Electricity produced from geothermal energy is environmentally friendly and renewable.
