| The Geo-Heat Center conducted an assessment of the use of a geothermal well coupled to a radiant floor system for greenhouse heating at the planned expansion of Ward’s Greenhouse, Inc. near Oreana, ID. Eventual plans call for construction of a 16-acre state-of-the-art greenhouse facility that will specialize mainly in the raising of poinsettias and other potted flowers. The proposed greenhouse design calls for a concrete floor with a flood-floor irrigation system and a radiant floor heatin... [More]

A Review of the Impact of Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS) on the United States in the 21st Century. A comprehensive assessment of enhanced, or engineered, geothermal systems was carried out by an 18-member panel assembled by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) to evaluate the potential of geothermal energy becoming a major energy source for the United States.
Geothermal resources span a wide range of heat sources from the Earth, including not only the more easily developed, cu... [More]

| An assessemnt by the USGS of the geothermal resources in the U.S. Geothermal plants in operation in California, Hawaii, Alaska, Idaho, Nevada, Utah with a total installed generating capacity of more than 2,500 MWe. The mean estimated power production from undiscoved geothermal resources is 3 more than 30,000 MWe with an additional resource of more than 517,000 MWe from enhanced geothermal reservoirs.

| In 2009 the transition of the World Stress Map Project to the GFZ German Research Centre for Geosciences (www.gfz-potsdam.de) has been accomplished. Neither politics nor strategy of the project has changed. It remains an independent research project with an open database access free of charge.
