You're assuming there is a plan, rather than just the president using it to get attention. All that seems to have really happened is that he's asked someone at the majority government owned geothermal power company to look into doing it.

Not exactly. I'm wondering whether the person who says they're going to do something better than what they're currently saying is correct.

Who is saying they are going to do something better? You gave a couple of options, and I pointed out there was an additional option. They are still just options absent a commitment to a plan, and there's no indication anyone has set out any actual plans.
