Geological survey work has started in several counties in southern Estonia. The goal is to determine the most suitable site for building an experimental geothermal plant, a facility that uses heat from beneath the ground.

The planned plant is meant to obtain thermal energy from underground water. Because it is experimental, it would serve as a trial of this technology in Estonia.

The surveys are being carried out in several southern counties, and the final construction site has not yet been chosen. The source does not name the specific counties, the project's cost, the timeline or the institutions involved.
