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...
The CIRES remote sensing unit of the University of Colorado was commissioned by Flint Geothermal LLC to identify areas of warm ground that could signify the thermal signature of "blind" geothermal systems. Using ASTER and LANDSAT data along with other characteristics considered fa...
Presentation given to National Groundwater Association meeting on deep basin brines. This presentation discusses why produced waters are being observed, the importance of REE's, the study areas examined, the data collected, and the relationship between REE concentration and possib...
As geothermal resource contributions to the energy sector grow, cybersecurity will be increasingly important to ensure resilient, reliable, and secure clean energy for years to come. An overview of the cybersecurity vulnerability assessment project was developed and presented at t...
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 study is part of a joint effort by the University of Wyoming (UW) School of Energy Resources (SER), the UW Engineering Department, Idaho National Laboratories (INL), and the United States Geological Survey (USGS) to describe rare earth element concentrations in oil and gas pr...
The EGS Collab project is developing ~10-20 m-scale field sites where fracture stimulation and flow models can be validated against controlled, small-scale, in-situ experiments. The first multi-well experimental site was established at the 4850 level in the Homestake Mine in Lead,...
EGS field projects have not sustained production at rates greater than half of what is needed for economic viability. The primary limitation that makes commercial EGS infeasible is our current inability to cost-effectively create high-permeability reservoirs from impermeable, igne...
These data and test descriptions comprise a chilled circulation test conducted at the 164' fracture in the EGS Collab Experiment 1 testbed on the 4850 ft level of the Sanford Underground Research Facility. Descriptions of the meta data, design drawings for the flow testing system,...
In California and Nevada, geothermal projects are subject to non-technical barriers, which may create development delays leading to higher project costs and risks and decreased competitiveness with other electricity generation technologies. These non-technical barriers may include...
The Report is being developed by NREL and the GRC, with financial support from the Geothermal Technologies Office of the U.S. DOE and the GRC. It is intended to provide geothermal policymakers, regulators, developers, researchers, and other stakeholders with up-to-date information...
Polycrystalline diamond compact (PDC) bits are routinely used in the oil and gas industry for drilling medium to hard rock but have not been adopted for geothermal drilling, largely due to past reliability issues and higher purchase costs. The Sandia Geothermal Research Departmen...
The primary objective of our current research is to develop a computational test bed for evaluating borehole techniques to enhance fluid flow and heat transfer in enhanced geothermal systems (EGS). Simulating processes resulting in hydraulic fracturing and/or the remobilization of...
Geothermal Technologies Program Peer Review Presentation on Blind Geothermal System Exploration in Active Volcanic Environments. Includes plans and statuses for multi-phase geophysical and geochemical surveys in overt and subtle volcanic systems in Hawaii and Maui.

Due the high temperature and pressure conditions found in geothermal wells, tracer studies designed to elucidate properties of geothermal reservoirs are traditionally conducted by pulling liquid samples from the wellhead. These samples are then sent off for analysis in a fixed lab...
Suites of new geophysical and geochemical surveys provide evidence for geothermal resource at the Haleakala Southwest Rift Zone (HSWRZ) on Maui Island, Hawai'i. This poster outlines the Site's background, the geophysical surveys conducted on the Site (LiDAR, gravity and magnetics)...
This project focused on assessment and discovery of fluid-rock interaction in geothermal reservoirs. We accomplished work in four main areas: 1) fracture formation and the relationship between fluid flow and shear failure, 2) assessment of fracture geometry and fluid permeability ...
The Geothermal Resource Portfolio Optimization and Reporting Technique (GeoRePORT) was developed with funding from the U.S. Department of Energy Geothermal Technologies Office to assist in identifying and pursuing long-term investment strategies through the development of a resour...
The objective of this project is to use a multi-disciplinary, three-tiered approach to assess the geothermal resource and determine the feasibility of implementing a large-scale, direct-use facility for the Hawthorne Army Depot (HAD) and the various town and county facilities in H...
The subsurface uncertainty at West Virginia University Main Campus is dominated by the uncertainty in the projections of geofluid flowrate in the target formation, the Tuscarora Sandstone. In this paper, three cores from the heterogeneous reservoir, available through West Virginia...
1301 Vertical Component seismic instruments were deployed at San Emidio Geothermal field in Nevada in December 2016. The first record starts at 2016-12-05T02:00:00.000000Z (UTC) and the last record ends at 2016-12-11T14:00:59.998000Z (UTC). Data are stored in individual files in o...
Paper authored by Stumpf et al. for the 2018 Geothermal Resources Council Annual Meeting held in Reno, NV USA. Included with the paper is the Microsoft PowerPoint presentation made at the GRC meeting and data tables associated with some of the figures.
A presentation with notes showing an overview of the last 6 months of the project on high-temperature self-healing inorganic cement composites. General approach, test methods and results for the self-healing cement composites are presented. Data include strength recoveries for 9 c...
This PowerPoint presentation describes the ground source heat pump system installed at the District Energy Corporation's thermal plant at the Lancaster County Adult Detention Facility in Lincoln, NE. The detention facility is a 270,000 sq. ft., 750 bed, secured facility.
