- Geothermal power development is focussed on the island of Lihir, 900Km
northeast of the capital, the initiative linked to gold mining. After an
initial 6 MW back-pressure plant was constructed in 2003, a new 50 MW station
has been commissioned, comprising one 30 MW unit and two 10 MW units. 75% of
the mine' s needs are provided by geothermal electricity, saving $40m in 2007,
replacing heavy fuel oil and generating £3m pa in carbon credits
