Combining the data Sekioka, one of the authors, has collected with the database recently developed by the NEW ENERGY the country update report of direct uses of geothermal energy in Japan as of July 1994 presented. as a background the present St at e of sources of geothermal energy. reinjection of geothermal and acquisition of fresh water for heat - ex changing are explained to point out problems in further Promot ion of direct uses. Secondly. analyses are carried out forv ari-ous aspects of direct uses of geothermal energy, Finally, the recoverable energy of low temperature geothermal resources, the total heat discharge from existing wells In the 120 big spas, the extractable heat from and the annual mean thermal energy used are compared, including effect of the o i l - saved,
