The territory of Azerbaijan is favorable by hydrogeothermic conditions and is divided into several regions. Khachmaz-Khudat is the most perspective among these regions for alternative and renewable energy sources. Thermal waters with 86 ^оС temperature on the Earth surface are the source of high energy. The consumption of these waters obtained from Upper Cretaceous complex reaches up to 6000 m³/day, the mineralization of the water, which have generally chloride-natrium composition is not so high (64 g/l). According to the temporary and permanent parameters of condition, the use of the water from the well No 116 in Khudat region   is possible for heating of surrounding settlements. Moreover, thermal waters obtained from the well No 112 have high temperature. These waters with 82 ^оС temparture at the wellhead, can fully meet the demand of surrounding canning plant.

By the hydrogeothermic conditions thermo-mineral waters taken from the wells No 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 12 and 113 on the onshore profile of Khachmaz-Khudat region are considered favorable.

These waters the temperature of which exceeds
50 ^оС in Nabran region are efficient to use in medical-resort complexes.
