Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The California Energy Commission has been sponsoring investigations of the geothermal resource in Clearlake, California. Studies have included preliminary work by Blaydes and Associates (1985), which incicated there was the potential for a resource beneath the city and five construction projects which could utilize geothermal energy, and a study by Papadopulos and Associates, which included a three meter temperature survey, a soil-radon gas survey, drilling of four 500 foot temperature gradient holes and interpretation of the work. Additional work, consisting of water chemistry, is currently underway. The work, to date, suggests there is a geothermal anomaly beneath the city. The temperature is expected to be 158 to 167F and the depth about 2,000 feet. The source of the warm water is unknown but the up-flow zone may be north or northwest of the temperature gradient holes. Maximum temperature encountered in the gradient holes was 96F in CL-4 at a depth of 125 feet. Temperature reversals were encountered in all the gradient holes. Temperature reversals usually indicate hot water leaking up a fault located up hydraulic gradient from the well and flowing along a permeable zone. If the fault can be located and intersected, hotter water can often be obtained; how much hotter would depend on the distance and how much the fluid has cooled or mixed with cooler water. The California Energy Commission funded this brief study to evaluate the potential for application of the inferred resource for district heating and/or other uses. This study consisted of the evaluation for district heating the area bound by Olympic Drive on the north, Old Hwy. 53 on the east and the lake on the southwest. This area was selected because it is near the temperature gradient holes in an area of elevated three meter temperatures and near fault intersections which are likely to serve as conduits for geothermal water to rise from depth. It is also near several projects noted in the Blaydes report.

Book excerpt: Results of a study to determine the technical, economic, and environmental feasibility of geothermal district heating for Mammoth Lakes Village, California are reported. The geothermal district heating system selected is technically feasible and will use existing technology in its design and operation. District heating can provide space and water heating energy for typical customers at lower cost than alternative sources of energy. If the district heating system is investor owned, lower costs are realized after five to six years of operation, and if owned by a nonprofit organization, after zero to three years. District heating offers lower costs than alternatives much sooner in time if co-generation and/or DOE participation in system construction are included in the analysis. During a preliminary environmental assessment, no potential adverse environmental impacts could be identified of sufficient consequence to preclude the construction and operation of the proposed district heating system. A follow-on program aimed at implementing district heating in Mammoth is outlined.
