The source adds the following information: "Among the 5 restricted sedimentary basins shown on the map in figure 10, only two are currently exploited for low-temperature geothermal energy. In the Rhone corridor, four sites are active for heating greenhouses, swimming pools, or for fish farming with geothermal water temperatures ranging between 30 and 52 degrees Celsius. In Limagne, one site is recorded for heating greenhouses with a temperature of 43 degrees Celsius."

Low-energy geothermal: production in restricted sedimentary basins 2012
This chart illustrates the production of low-temperature geothermal energy in confined basins in France in 2012, by geological zone. It shows that in that year, approximately **** gigawatt-hours thermal of low-temperature geothermal energy were produced in the Limagne plain in Puy-de-Dôme (63).
