This book was released on 1979 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The term ''geothermal energy'' is a term that means different things to different people. To an increasing number, it means a practical, environmentally compatible energy resource that can, right now, help to relieve an overdependency upon fossil fuels. The potential for use of geothermal energy in Colorado seems to be substantial. As described by Barrett and Pearl (1978), at least 56 separate areas have surface manifestations of hydrothermal (hot water) resources. These areas are estimated to contain 5.914 quads (5.914 x 1015 Btu) of energy, with extractable energy of 1.48 quads. Geothermal resources already contribute to Colorado's energy supply. In fact, since the early 1900's, practical uses of geothermal resources have been common in Pagosa Springs, in Southwest Colorado. Residents there have used hot-water wells to heat numerous buildings, including the County Court House, schools, churches, the newspaper office, a liquor store, 2 hotels, 2 service stations, a drugstore, and a bank, as well as for the swimming pool and spa. Where resources are in use in other parts of the State, most are used for swimming pools or baths. A few wells or springs serve other purposes, among them space heating and agriculture, including greenhouses, a fish farm and algae-growing. Seemingly, interest in and awareness of the resources is growing. If leases and permits are made available, along with some economic incentives, some or all of the three potential power-generation sites may be developed by private industry. Perhaps with the assistance of federal programs, initially, lower temperature resources, too, will be developed by private industry. While government can provide opportunities, the outcome depends upon the decisions of numerous individuals throughout the system. Colorado does have geothermal resources that can contribute to the energy supply. It remains to be seen whether these resources will fulfill their promise.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The State of Colorado seems to have significant geothermal energy potential. Indeed, several successful geothermal facilities are located in the state already. A prior study showed that about 500 megawatts of electricity could be produced in Colorado with geothermal energy and that about 30 communities could use geothermal for their direct thermal energy needs (Coe, 1978). A more specific indication of the potential is necessary, however, for several reasons. First, tax dollars are allocated by the Federal government to aid the research and development of various energy forms, including geothermal energy. The extent to which the expenditure of public funds is justified depends upon the extent of the probable return of benefits to the public. In the case of geothermal energy, these benefits come in the form of energy on line at an affordable price and without intolerable negative impacts. Secondly, the Congressional mandate that led to this planning effort requires the encouragement of the commercial development of geothermal energy (P.L. 93-410, Sec. 2). It is hoped that providing ideas and information about the geothermal energy potential may help stimulate local communities, users, and developers to develop and use a valuable, but so-far virtually-untapped resource. As such, the Colorado Geological Survey, under a contract from Four Corners and the Department of Energy, is evaluating the potential for developing the geothermal resources of Colorado. This report details that potential. Finally, the study describes constraints that are limiting geothermal energy development. Recommendations may then be made for measures designed to overcome those constraints.
