Funded by
National Science Foundation and
Department of Energy grants, a team of scientists from
Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL), the
University of Minnesota (U of M) and
Ohio State University (OSU) has developed a novel geothermal power plant design that leverages unwanted, captured carbon dioxide to boost both output and efficiency compared to conventional geothermal plants. The approach also extends the potential reach of geothermal power generation across the country.
