Message from the Chair 2010 was a remarkably successful and memorable year for the IEA Geothermal Implementing Agreement. As an organization, we have been operating for 14 years and have passed the half way mark of our third term, and considerable progress has been made towards achieving many of our objectives. For this, I want to thank our Executive Secretary, Dr Mike Mongillo, for his enthusiastic, proactive, and visionary approach to the role. I thank, also, the members of the Executive Committee, past and present, who can justifiably be proud of their input into the IEA-GIA‘s many accomplishments, achieved through considerable voluntary effort, enthusiasm, good humor and dedication. Indeed, geothermal has been well served. Some of the highlights of the 2010-year included the impressive amount of effort that went into the World Geothermal Congress held in Bali, Indonesia, involving about 2,000 participants. This included manning an IEA-GIA exhibition booth, side-meetings, numerous research presentations, a keynote address, and a subsequent article for the June issue of the IEA OPEN Bulletin, Geothermal‘s Rising Fortunes. In addition, ExCo members assisted IEA staff with preparation of the IEA- Renewable Energy Essentials: Geothermal‘, an informative four page brochure, and preparation of an IEA Geothermal Roadmap, with its three associated workshops. This important visionary document will track global geothermal deployment into the future. ExCo members also assisted with completion of a chapter on geothermal energy potential in an influential document produced by the IPCC, which dealt with renewable energy options for mitigation of climate change. The publication on the IEA-GIA website of the proceedings of a joint IEA-GIA~IGA workshop held in 2009 in Madrid on global geothermal development potential, was instrumental in achieving this challenging task. Another highlight was the production of a special issue of the international journal Geothermics, consisting of eleven collected articles on sustainability of geothermal resources, the outcome of a task that was initiated back in 2008. The IEA-GIA ExCo also supported an outreach program that included, for example, presentation of the results of its collaborative work at the 2010 Geothermal Resources Council Meeting in USA, and support for expert participation at an Induced Seismicity workshop in Iceland. Details of these activities and other Annex related work carried out during the 2010 year are presented in this comprehensive Annual Report, which I highly recommend you read. The individual member Country and Sponsor reports, in particular, are worth a mention, because they represent an impressive amount of effort by participants to collate and present up-to-date information. These documents form the basis for numerous other assessments of regional and global trends in deployment of renewable energy technology. They are the information backbone that supports the deployment projections, that are in turn crucial in setting governmental policies, and for international promotion of geothermal as a significant player in the competitive market-place of renewable energy deployment.
