【 摘 要 】

A technique for the assessment of Ukraine's geothermal resources is discussed in terms of the intensity of the Earth's heat flow. The availability (density) of thermal resources in major tectonic regions has been estimated. Their reserves are shown to be 25 times larger than known reserves of all fossil fuel deposits. Three areas of Ukraine have been categorized as suitable for the construction of geothermal power plants. In other areas, cost-effective energy production for heating purposes is feasible.
