Abstract

The study focuses on Nigeria geothermal energy resources and its viability. Nigeria blessed with abundant oil resources, with renewable hydropower energy, supplying energy to the neighbouring community, today is depending on importation of fuel for citizen survival, poor energy supply hence harsh economic condition, poverty on the increase and population growth geometric. This situation calls for revamping the renewable energy sector and a gradual drift from over dependence on non-renewable energy to the potential, the force multiplier to do work hence geothermal energy. This energy with a very good underground storage potential, no greenhouse effect, environmental impact advantage, improved cost advantage, economic policies, legal frameworks, with potentially reliable geothermal enthalpy resource characteristics and enormous resources of lava flows, volcanic sources, hot springs, and geysers can be made viable as recommended alleviating the state of the nation into a happy surviving nation.
