EERE Success Story—“Seeing Underground” to Advance Geothermal Energy (EERE)
Energy sources originating from beneath the Earth’s surface satisfy over 80% of total U.S. energy needs, and a key energy challenge today is to ensure safe, sustainable, and affordable availability of these natural resources in the subsurface. A key issue, however, is being able to “see” what is in the subsurface.
The
Department of Energy (DOE) is busy at work funding R&D to advance technologies that allow access to this reliable, secure energy source under the
SubTER crosscut - a DOE initiative that unites five key DOE agencies in a collaborative effort to ultimately improve our nation’s energy security and availability.
