The likely presence of geothermal resources beneath Dominica is suggested by a boiling lake, numerous boiling hot springs, several large solfataras and very recent (<500 YBP) volcanic activity. There are at least three geothermal centers. In 1995, an American company entered into agreements with the utility and the government to develop the resource at Soufriére but to date no action has resulted.
