Volcanic geothermal systems have high temperatures (+200^oC) due to magmatic-related resources.  Examples are in:

• The Taupo Volcanic System of New Zealand;
• The Geysers field just north of San Francisco, California;
• Fields in Japan, the Philippines and Indonesia.
• Chile.

These volcanic geothermal areas occur close to the edges of continental plates. These have temperatures of 200^oC to 350^oC.

However, they only occur in proximity to active volcanic systems.  Typically, each zone is relatively small, up to 50 km² in area.

Most of the current geothermal generation (9,000 MW) comes from volcanic related systems.
