Geothermal Resource Exploration

1982
Exploration for geothermal resources in the Basin and Range geomorphic province of the western United States is much akin to mineral resource exploration. In this region, potential geothermal resources are located at or near zones of intersection of normal faults, where fracture permeability permits deep circulation of meteoric water into high ...

Geothermal resources in Algeria

Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews, 2009
Abstract The geothermal resources in Algeria are of low-enthalpy type. Most of these geothermal resources are located in the northeastern of the country. There are more than 240 thermal springs in Algeria. Three geothermal zones have been delineated according to some geological and thermal considerations: (1) The Tlemcenian dolomites in the ...

Geothermal resources of Sumatra

Geothermics, 1993
Abstract There are at least 30 high temperature systems (with inferred reservoir temperatures >200°C) along the active Sumatra Arc that transfer heat from crustal intrusions to the surface. These systems, together with eleven active volcanoes, five degassing volcanoes and one caldera volcano (Lake Toba), are controlled by the Sumatra Fault Zone, an ...

California's Geothermal Resource Potential

Energy Sources, 1978
According to a U.S. Geological Survey estimate, recoverable hydrothermal energy in California may amount to 19,000 MW of electric power for a 30-year period. At present, a geothermal installation in the Geysers region of the state provides 502 MWe of capacity; an additional 1500 MWe of electric generating capacity is scheduled to be in operation in ...

Geothermal resources of Hachijojima

Geothermics, 2000
Abstract Hachijojima is a gourd-shaped volcanic island in the Pacific Ocean. Nishiyama and Higashiyama volcanoes consist of basalt lava and associated pyroclastic rocks. A promising geothermal resource was found in south Higashiyama, associated with an uplift of Tertiary rocks consisting of mainly andesite lava and related pyroclastic rocks, overlain

Geothermal resources of Alaska

1983
Between 1979 and 1982, the Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys (DGGS) and the Geophysical Institute, University of Alaska Fairbanks, undertook an assessment of the states geothermal resources under a program jointly sponsored by the U.S. Department of Energy and the State of Alaska.

Integrative Geothermal Resource Assessment

Proceedings, 2011
The development of geothermal energy utilization for electricity production has suffered strong drawbacks with the recent events of induced seismicity occurred at the site of Basel (Switzerland) and Landau (Germany). Typically, the population only got aware of the local geothermal activities when being affected by vibrations and noise originating from ...

Geothermal resources in Bolivia

Geothermics, 1988
In 1975 preliminary geothermal investigations were carried out in Bolivia by an Italian mission. The report (Marinelli, 1975) concluded that there was definitely a possibility of finding favourable areas for geothermal exploitation in Bolivia. In 1976 the Bolivian Electric Company (ENDE), the Bolivian Geological Service (GEOBOL), and the United Nations
