The Tiwi geothermal power plant in the Philippines provides a reliable source of renewable energy, yet geothermal plants supply only around 10.1% of the Philippines’ electricity. Indeed, the necessary combination of naturally occurring geological and hydrological features—accessible underground reservoirs, sufficiently high subterranean temperatures, and fractured rocks—__________ relatively rare, effectively limiting the Philippines’ development of new geothermal energy infrastructure.
