Re: Economic Impacts of Geothermal Energy
As per your demand here I am providing you information about the Economic Impacts of Geothermal Energy, Geothermal Energy Association as well as Near-Term Geothermal Potential & Resulting Economic Contribution. Geothermal Energy Association Geothermal power is a low cost energy source that diversifies the fuel supply and benefits the transitioning power grid. Geothermal power does not require purchase of fuel, and because it is a baseload resource, geothermal power is reliable, helping to stabilize prices. Geothermal power is also dispatchable, or able to be ramped up or down quickly to make up for intermittency caused by wind or solar power. The average cost of geothermal plant over its lifetime is dramatically lower than that of traditional sources of power. Geothermal energy is locally produced, reducing foreign oil imports and boosting rural economies through royalties and tax payments. A geothermal power project development will involve hundreds of individuals, employing local people full time as well as stimulating induced jobs. Near-Term Geothermal Potential & Resulting Economic Contribution State New Power Capacity (MW) 30-Year Economic Output (nominal) California 2,400 $36 billion Nevada 1,500 $22.5 billion Oregon 380 $5.7 billion Washington 50 $749 million Alaska 25 $375 million Arizona 20 $300 million Colorado 20 $300 million Hawaii 70 $1 billion Idaho 860 $12.9 billion New Mexico 80 $1.2 billion Utah 230 $3.4 billion Total 5,635 MW $84,410,046,000.00 Address: Geothermal Energy Association Association or Organization 209 Pennsylvania Ave SE, Washington, DC 20003, United States Phone:+1 202-454-5261 |
