The top 10 news items read by visitors to the ThinkGeoEnergy website give a sense of the global nature of the geothermal energy sector and the readership of the website, with news from Australia, U.S., Turkey and Malaysia among others topping the most read pieces for 2011.

The year of 2011 has been an exciting and busy one for ThinkGeoEnergy, continuing the progress of the site and its offerings, ThinkGeoEnergy released a printed version of its Geothermal Power Plant Map (an updated online version is in progress), released an iPhone App (GeoEnergy) and has been present at various geothermal events this year. So I thought I would provide some statistics on ThinkGeoEnergy for the year 2011 on the visits to the ThinkGeoEnergy.com.

So today I am starting with the top 10 news read by visitors to the website from January 1, 2011 to December 31, 2011.
