RETRACTED: A review of geothermal energy resources in Australia: Current status and prospects

This article has been retracted: please see Elsevier Policy on Article Withdrawal (http://www.elsevier.com/locate/withdrawalpolicy).This article has been retracted at the request of the Editor-in-Chief.This article contains substantial overlap with the following source: 2010 "Australian Energy Resource Assessment" (AERA) report published by Geoscience Australia and the Department of Resources Tourism and Energy (see: http://www.ga.gov.au/metadata-gateway/metadata/record/gcat_70142)The corresponding author had obtained permission from Geoscience Australia to use this source in preparing a report to be published in Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews. However, the Editor-in-Chief views the role of Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews to publish original and previously unpublished research, and therefore deems the level of similarity with this previous work, coupled with lack of citation, to undermine the suitability of the article to be published in this journalWe regret that this problem was not detected before the article was accepted for publication in the journal.
