  CURRENT TOTAL GENERATION
  GEOTHERMAL RESOURCES	75 Mw
  HYDROELECTRIC RESOURCES	100Mw
  THERMAL RESOURCES	165Mw
  TOTAL	340Mw

• The geothermal resources have a potential to produce up to 4,000 Mw.
• The standard voltage generated is 13,800 volts, 3-phase at a frequency of 60 Hertz per second.
• All the generators, with the exception of the isolated systems, are connected to the national grid, which in turn, is connected to Honduras and Costa Rica through the Regional Interconnection System, allowing the three countries to export and import energy freely.
• The Nicaraguan Government estimates that for the next ten years, it will be necessary to invest around US $1,500 million in the generation of electricity.
• Due to the rise in population and the economic activities in Nicaragua, it is expected that demand for energy will increase at a constant rate of 10% per year for the next 20 years.
