In this analysis, we outline the types of NEPA-related analyses and approvals (e.g., environmental assessment), and we provide examples of geothermal development activities (e.g., well drilling) that might require each type of approval, including an overview and discussion of the ...
During the 2013 fiscal year, the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) developed the Geothermal National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) Database with funding provided by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Geothermal Technologies Office (GTO). The information in the databas...
This study focuses primarily on the Categorial Exclusions (CX) process and its applicability to geothermal exploration. In this paper, we:
Provide generalized background information on CXs, including previous NEPA reports addressing CXs, the process for developing CXs, and the ro...
The Regulatory and Permitting Information Desktop (RAPID) Toolkit combines the former Geothermal Regulatory Roadmap, National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) Database, and other resources into a Web-based tool that gives the regulatory and utility-scale geothermal developer commun...
Preliminary monitoring and analyses for the Utah FORGE Milford Site.
Includes a report detailing the seismic monitoring goals and results, a detailed techno-economic infrastructure assessment with an analysis, a budget, schedules, and cost summaries, and a summary of environmental...
This report is the third in a series of reports sponsored by the U.S. Department of Energy Geothermal Technologies Program in which a range of water-related issues surrounding geothermal power production are evaluated. The first report made an initial attempt at quantifying the li...
This is the final technical report documenting laboratory experiments and modeling conducted to characterize the thermo-poromechanical behavior of fractured crystalline rocks for application to Utah FORGE. The report includes measurements of poroelastic and thermo-poroelastic prop...
This final report summarizes the work done on Utah FORGE project 2-2404. The project aimed to develop a methodology integrating alternative well bore and core-based methods and reservoir-scale focal mechanisms (FM) to better estimate the reservoir stress at FORGE. The project obje...
This is a presentation on the Role of Fluid and Temperature in Fracture Mechanics and Coupled Thermo-Hydro-Mechanical-Chemical (THMC) Processes for Enhanced Geothermal Systems project by Purdue University, presented by Distinguished Professor of Physics & Astronomy, Dr. Laura J. P...
Despite having a large geothermal power potential in the United States, only a small fraction has been developed for power generation. Various barriers, including technical, financial, and regulatory permit delays, are attributed to lower contribution of geothermal energy in the n...
Caldwell Ranch Exploration and Confirmation Project, Northwest Geysers, CA: 2011 Geothermal Technologies Peer Review Project Summary
The Caldwell Ranch Exploration and Confirmation Project was to drill, test, and confirm the present economic viability of the undeveloped geothermal...
This is the final topical report for the Phase 2B Utah FORGE project, which is located near Roosevelt Hot Springs, Utah. This PDF format report details results associated with the conceptual geologic model, deep well 58-32, rock geomechanics, reservoir temperatures, seismic survey...
This is the first project report and induced seismicity mitigation plan for the Newberry Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS) Demonstration project. The primary objectives of this first phase were to obtain necessary permits and comply with all regulations, including NEPA, communica...
This report provides insights into Utah FORGE well 58-32's hydraulic fractures. It utilizes both electrical borehole scans from Schlumberger's Formation Micro-scanner Image tool (FMI) and Stoneley waves from a borehole sonic tool. These methods are combined in a comprehensive work...
This dataset includes data from injection/fall-off experiments conducted in controlled laboratory settings. The aim is to investigate the physics governing fracture closure and the associated stress measurements during hydraulic fracturing. These time series data include flow rat...
We conducted a comprehensive analysis of the structural controls of geothermal systems within the Great Basin and adjacent regions. Our main objectives were to:
1) Produce a catalogue of favorable structural environments and models for geothermal systems.
2) Improve site-specifi...
The National Renewable Energy Laboratory, Southern Methodist University Geothermal Laboratory, Eastman Chemical, Turbine Air Systems, and the Electric Power Research Institute are evaluating the feasibility of using geothermal heat to improve the efficiency of natural gas power pl...
This submission includes papers, presentations, and data developed during the multi-year GeoVision Barriers Taskforce effort.
Developers have identified many non-technical barriers to geothermal power development, including land access, permitting, and market barriers. Included i...
This is a final report summarizing a one-year (2014-15) DOE funded Geothermal Play Fairway Analysis of the Low-Temperature resources of the Appalachian Basin of New York, Pennsylvania and West Virginia. Collaborators included Cornell University, Southern Methodist University, and...
This submission contains the presentation slides and recordings from EGS Collab Modeling and Simulation Working Group (MSWG) teleconferences number 99 through 128. These teleconferences served three objectives for the project: 1) share simulation results, 2) communicate field acti...
Description of experimental protocol used to characterize the effectiveness of regenerating ligand-based adsorption media through the addition of ligands when media were previously depleted of ligands during use. Results of the effectiveness of this regeneration are also described.
