By Sertaç Akar, CEMAC Analyst
I had the pleasure of attending the 41st Geothermal Resources Council (GRC) Annual Meeting recently to give a presentation "Global Value Chain and Manufacturing Analysis on Geothermal Power Plant Turbines," which highlighted Clean Energy Manufacturing Analysis Center (CEMAC)'s analysis work in this area. Little did I know, the GRC would later announce that my presentation was among the winners for best technical presentation!
To understand more about the opportunities to improve and expand the geothermal power market, CEMAC developed a manufacturing analysis methodology of geothermal power plant turbines including materials, manufacturing equipment, machining process and cost model.
