Mission and VisionVision
For the Geothermal Implementing Agreementto become a multinational forum with sufficient governmental and industrial strength to positively influence the design of
Participants’ RD&D plans, to optimize Participants’ r eturns on RD&D investment by coordinating joint projects and sharing information, and to effectively support and complement IEA’s efforts to promote geothermal as a clean, economic, renewable
energy resource which will contribute significantly to global energy needs and security, and at the same time protect the environment.
Mission To promote sustainableuse of geothermal energy worldwide by improving existing and
developing new technologies to render exploitable the vast and widespread global geothermal resources, by facilitating the transfer of know-how, by providing high
quality information and by widely communicating geothermal’s strategic, economic and environmental benefits, and thereby contribute to the mitigation of climate change
3rd Term (2007-2013) Strategic PlanObjectives
1) To actively promote effective cooperationon geothermal RD&D through collaborative work programmes, workshops and seminars
2) To collect, improve/develop and disseminate geothermal energyRD&D policy information for IEA Member and non-Member countries
3) To identify geothermal energy RD&D issuesand opportunities and improve conventional and develop new geothermal energy technologies and methods to deal with them
4) To increase membershipin the GIA5) To encourage collaboration with other international organizations
and appropriate implementing agreements6) To broaden and increase the disseminationof information on
geothermal energy and the GIA’s activities and outputs to decision makers, financiers, researchers and the general public

Self Review of IEA-GIA Objectives
1) To actively promote effective cooperation on geothermal RD&D through collaborative work programmes, workshops and seminars
2) To collect, improve/develop and disseminate geothermal energy RD&D policy information for IEA Member and non-Member countries
3) To identify geothermal energy RD&D issues and opportunities and improve conventional and develop new geothermal energy technologies and methods to deal with them
4) To increase membership in the GIA
5) To encourage collaboration with other international organizations and appropriate implementing agreements
6) To broaden and increase the dissemination of information on geothermal energy and the GIA’s activities and outputs to decision makers, financiers, researchers and the general public
Issues Facing IEA-GIA
1. Formation of other international geothermal organizations (IPGT, GEISER, etc.) with slightly different focus, but overlapping in some areas
Participation in these and working to remove duplication2. Maintaining influence/relevance in the international geothermal scene when Members’ work
activities are set by their own organizationsBetter influence Member organization priorities
3. Limited funding of GIA and Annex participantsGIA Common Fund carries-over ~US$ 200 K/yrCreated proposal funding scheme to initiate and assist completion of projects
4. Limited/restricted time for most participants due to voluntary membership maintaining participation and getting timely contributions can be difficult.
Look for incentives5. Marketing geothermal globallynot currently undertaken by GIA nor (to our knowledge) by the IEA-
RETD IA participation in RETD? IEA assistance with marketing/outreach?
