Issue: |
The objective of the project is to facilitate the search for sources of renewable geothermal energy. |
Objective: |
State-specific geothermal data will be compiled into an integrated, distributed, and searchable national data system, referred to as the "National Geothermal Data System." |
Approach: |
A coalition of state geological surveys will populate the National Geothermal Data System with relevant state-specific geothermal data. |
Products: |
The National Geothermal Data System will serve as a national library of geothermal data and information that will be available to the public. |
Benefits: |
The National Geothermal Data System will drive renewed efforts to identify, assess and exploit geothermal energy resources across America. |
