Abstract
World data on using geothermal heat in different technologies are generalized. Current achievements in the development of domestic geothermal power technologies and the creation of geothermal power plants are presented. Main trends in the development of heat and electricity supply on the basis of geothermal sources in Russia and abroad are shown.
