Abstract
Macedonia is characterized with low-temperature geothermal energy utilization, while the medium and high-temperature potentials are still not explored. Nevertheless, even the present available resources are by far underutilized.
This paper gives a summary of the geothermal status in Macedonia comprising the geological background, known hydro-geothermal resources and their potential, present state of geothermal surveys & utilization and main projects’ characteristics, with identification and comments on the negatively influencing factors. At the end, prospects of the expected/possible development are summarized.
