Surface detailed geothermal explorations (geological, geophysical and geochemical) have been carried out in the Sabalan regions. Results of feasibility studies for two zones of high geothermal potential (32 × 1018 Jules) in the Sabalan region indicate the following priority: Meshkinshahr and Sarein.
According to geothermometric evaluation the average temperature of deep reservoirs are 130°C - 250°C. Therefore, Meshkinshahr area has the highest geothermal potential for electric generation whereas Sarein area for direct uses.
