Building Golf Courses. There are many valid reasons for building a golf course. These include wanting a course as an amenity for a resort or hotel, to benefit selling houses around its fairways and within a residential golf community, for the recreation of club members, as the site for tournaments, as a “green” business to operate for profit, by a municipality for the healthful recreation of its citizens while also attracting visitors or tourists and combinations of these reasons. Most golfers expect a golf course to have 18 holes with a par of about 72, plus a practice range and practice greens. This typically requires from 140 to 180 acres of useable land.
Nine holes with a par of 35 or 36 should take about half the acreage. However if nine holes are built initially, it is still better if there is enough land to design a second nine at the same time, for eventual expansion to 18.

Financing geothermal is more difficult the earlier the development stage of the project.
This reflects the risks of geothermal projects until the resource has been proven. The further the project develops the more the risk decreases, making its financing easier. Knowledge and experience are therefore key for any geothermal development and that applies not only to the developer but also to financial players, such as banks or investors. The industry gained some valuable support through financial players with a unique interest in geothermal, which will help to increase overall interest in this important energy segment of the future.
Geothermal development has always been tied to and grown with increases in price developments on electricity markets. So it is not surprising that today in times of increasing discussion about global warming and rising energy prices, geothermal is again gaining interest as a base-load energy resource. Startseite.
