​Providing background knowledge to the reader, the report starts with an introduction to geothermal energy and its possible applications. It details the different possibilities of power production from geothermal resources and identifies the most important direct use applications.
 
The second part of the report introduces the geothermal favourability maps of the Yukon.  It provides qualitative and quantitative information about local temperature profiles, the geothermal gradient, estimated conductivity, estimated heat flow and the technical and theoretical potential. The favourability maps were also released separately and are available as part of the Canadian National Geothermal Database (CNGD). The geothermal potential of the Yukon implies more than 1,700 MW of indicated resources at a depth of less than 5,000 metres (using a 5% recovery factor). This number rises to approximately 5,000 MW when inferred resources are considered. Approximately 100 MW of low-hanging-fruit resources are available at a depth of less than 2,000 metres.
 
The report also provides detailed information about 17 Yukon communities and their demographics, infrastructure and geothermal potential. Suitable geothermal direct use applications are discussed and valuable information for community leaders and decision makers is shared.
 
After the discussion of specific communities, four case studies from Alaska, the Yukon and the Northwest Territories are portrayed in order to display the variability of geothermal projects in northern climates and their development. Ending with information on resource identification, resource rights, market factors, uncertainty, resource exploration, environmental impact, finances and public acceptance, the report explains why these factors are essential to geothermal project development.
