As a result of collaborations begun at the November 2001 conference, BLM requested technical assistance and support from DOE through NREL in Golden, Colorado. BLM Headquarters and its National Science and Technology Center (NSTC) in Denver, Colorado, formed a partnership with NREL to obtain the government’s expertise in the use of renewable energy. NREL agreed to provide information and guidance on renewable energy technology development, renewable energy resource potential assessment, GIS mapping of analysis and results, and renewable energy system analysis. Based on this experience, BLM's NSTC, the DOE Golden Field Office, and NREL have developed a Memorandum of Understanding to provide a mechanism for continued cooperation in the assessment and analysis of renewable energy resources. During the development of this report, staff from DOE Headquarters, NREL, and Oak Ridge National Laboratory met with BLM and renewable energy industry representatives. They provided support for BLM’s plan, which focused on the goal of increasing access to public lands for renewable power production projects. Discussions were held on hydropower, solar, wind, biomass, and geothermal energy resources. Preliminary GIS maps supplied by the BLM/NREL team indicated areas with high potential for wind and solar power, including concentrating solar power (CSP). Most renewable energy uses of the public lands can currently be accommodated by existing BLM land-use plans, and applicants from industry may apply for an authorization under the appropriate authority at any time. These existing land-use plans will identify wilderness areas, Areas of Critical Environmental Concern (ACEC), and other special designated management areas where land-use restrictions may apply to a variety of uses, including renewable energy projects. However, if a land-use plan is prepared to specifically address and provide for renewable energy development within certain areas of a land-use planning area, it may facilitate the accelerated processing of future renewable energy applications. The land-use plan will address environmental issues associated with those proposed uses, which can then be used to tier further environmental review of specific renewable energy project proposals. Identifying land- use plans that could be prioritized to specifically address renewable energy development provides an opportunity to potentially reduce the amount of additional environmental review required. The documentation needed to process applications and make management decisions on renewable energy projects could also be reduced. Therefore, one purpose of this report is to assist BLM in identifying land-use planning areas with the highest potential for the development of renewable energy resources. 4. The Approach for Assessing Renewable Energy Potential TASK 1—Gather available information on renewable energy potential (including low- impact hydro, solar, wind, biomass and geothermal). BLM’s NSTC staff provided GIS-based land ownership data to NREL. NREL Resource Assessment staff then produced GIS maps illustrating renewable energy resources, with an overlay of BLM land ownership, field offices, and planning units. Maps for CSP, PV, wind, and biomass are provided in Appendix A. Renewable resource and BLM land ownership GIS data descriptions are provided in Appendix B. Resource assessment for high-potential geothermal sites did not include GIS resource and BLM land ownership maps or screening criteria development meetings. Rather, high-potential geothermal sites were identified through site visits and telephone calls with BLM state offices and GIS data sources.
