Resumen

Factores como la fosilización, la diversificación de los recursos energéticos, el desarrollo sostenible y la seguridad energética están atrayendo la atención mundial hacia el desarrollo y la expansión de las fuentes de energía renovables. Se están abordando los problemas medioambientales derivados del consumo de combustibles fósiles, pero sigue preocupando la renovabilidad y disponibilidad de nuevas fuentes de energía. México se encuentra entre los diez primeros países en explotación de energía geotérmica, con una historia de unas cinco décadas. El presente estudio examina los cinco principales campos geotérmicos de México: Cerro Prieto, Los Azufres, Los Humeros, Las Tres Vírgenes y Domo San Pedro. México trabaja actualmente con empresas geotérmicas internacionales; sin embargo, necesita más centrales y una mayor cooperación para hacer llegar esta energía a la industria y los hogares. El presente estudio analiza el potencial de la explotación geotérmica en México y su posición en el mundo tras la introducción de la energía geotérmica, después se discute el potencial y capacidades de cada uno de los campos geotérmicos. Finalmente, se revisan los escenarios energéticos futuros de México en general con énfasis en la energía geotérmica.
