"The meeting is expected to boost renewable energies and environmentally friendly, could be more widely used by the world community," emphasized President of Indonesian Geothermal Association (INAGA), Surya Darma, in Nusa Dua Bali, Sunday (25 / 4).
WGC2010 theme Geothermal: The Energy to Change the World. According to Chairman of the Committee for WGC 2010, Herman Darnel Ibrahim, the theme of the show a dream to change the world through the application of renewable energy sources are environmentally friendly. "This theme is a dream that we should follow up with in order to become a reality. So begins the dream, and together we make a plan and then together we apply to safeguard our environment," said Herman.
WGC2010 followed by academics, experts, policymakers, and investors are moving to develop geothermal energy.
"This Congress is a forum for the sharing of success in the management of geothermal power, starting from upstream to downstream. Starting from ekspolorasi, drilling, exploitation, to business sales.

The Indonesian government is targeting the development of geothermal energy to reach 9500 MW by 2025 next year. To achieve this target, the government through the acceleration program targeting an additional 10,000 MW of energy 4000 MW of geothermal energy to the end of 2015.
To develop 4000 MW of geothermal energy, the estimated need of about $ 12 billion or Rp.120 trillion. Thus expressed Chairman of Indonesian Geothermal Association Surya Darma, interrupted a press conference ahead of opening of the World Geothermal Congress (WGC2010), Sunday (25 / 4). (OL/OL-7)
