This program enabled me to devise an analytical study of the monetary and non-monetary criteria of geothermal projects. The monetary criteria of a region or a location for geothermal energy production cover the investment costs of the surface installations and the cost of the drillings. Non-monetary criteria include the geological and geothermal evaluations of a reservoir and the evaluation of consumer potential. This paper represents a small part of the larger study and focuses on consumer potential.geothermal energyconsumer potentialdistrict heatingmatrixscoringfolyóiratcikkOpen AccessUniversity of Debrecen, Faculty of Economics and Business, Hungaryhttps://doi.org/10.19041/APSTRACT/2012/3-4/18Applied Studies in Agribusiness and Commerce3-46APSTRACT1789-7874
