We show that the scale of the inflationary potential may be the electroweak scale or even lower, while still generating an acceptable spectrum of primordial density perturbations. Thermal effects readily lead to the initial conditions necessary for low scale inflation to occur, and even the moduli problem can be evaded if there is such an inflationary period. We discuss how low scale inflationary models may arise in supersymmetric theories or in theories with large new space dimensions.
