Chapter 8 Environmental Impacts, Attributes, and Feasibility Criteria There are several geothermal power plants in the Imperial Valley of California that coexist harmoniously with various agricultural activities. Figure 8.4 shows an aerial view of the 40 MW SIGC Heber binary plant amid fields of alfalfa in California’s Imperial Valley (Google Earth, 2006). Notice that the plant site, including the main production well pad, covers about 0.12 km2 or about 3,000 m2/MW. The power plant proper, excluding the wells, covers only 0.041 km2 or about 1,020 m2/MW. The barren land to the south of the plant site was the location of an older experimental binary plant that has been decommissioned (DiPippo, 2005). Figure 8.4 Aerial view of the SIGC binary plant near Heber, Calif. (Google Earth, 2006). 8­14 2 plant. The area occupied by this plant and all well pads and holding ponds is about 0.095 km or about Figure 8.5 is a view of the 47 MW Heber Double­Flash plant that is located just to the east of the SIGC 2,000 m2/MW. Both of these plants illustrate how geothermal plants, flash and binary, can operate compatibly within an agricultural environment and be economical of land space. With regard to the construction of an EGS facility, it can be expected that similar impacts will take place on the land surface and result in a facility having a central power plant with a network of above­ ground pipelines connecting the power station to a set of production and injection wells. However, the land can be at least partially restored to its natural condition through the same reclamation techniques practiced at hydrothermal plants.
