The Energy Department is seeking information from the geothermal community about underutilized wells in known geothermal resource areas in the United States.
The Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy’s Geothermal Technologies Office (GTO) has issued a request for information (RFI) to obtain feedback on industry willingness to partner with GTO to test downhole tools, technologies, and methodologies that can improve the probability of successful geothermal commercialization.
The Identifying Wells of Opportunity for Critical Geothermal Field Research Applications RFI has three categories of interest:
- Well Characteristics and Availability
- Risk
- Liability
