An NAS review could bring national stature to geothermal energy by focusing the attention of DOE upper management, other government agencies, wide segments of the energy and environmental communities, and the public at large, on HDR and geothermal energy in general. In this way, the review could help provide wider appreciation of the current contributions of geothermal energy to the nation's clean energy goals. Furthermore, recognition of HDR as a ubiquitous resource of national importance with a proven potential for deployment, would foster the increased public support for geothermal energy that will be essential if federal financial assistance to geothermal development is to be maintained in these times of shrinking national budgets. A Geothermal Industry Review Board for HDR. The function of the geothermal industry review board will be to work closely with the DOE to define the specifics of the HDR Program. The board will assure that HDR is integrated into the mainstream of the geothermal research program, develop or endorse projects that apply HDR technology to the improvement of hydrothermal productivity, and advise the DOE on the direction of HDR work, especially in the near-term. Hopefully, the membership of the board will be drawn from the full spectrum of geothermal stakeholding organizations. Ideally, the geothermal industry HDR review board will be an ongoing entity that will first provide input to the NAS panel and then work with the DOE Geothermal Division to implement the NAS vision for HDR in a manner compatible with the aims of the geothermal industry. While the industry board may be charged with developing and prioritizing HDR projects, the DOE, acting as the agent of the US taxpayer, must make the final programmatic decisions in the face of budgetary limitations and broad departmental renewable energy goals. Options for A Restructured HDR Program. The most important restructuring challenge is to formulate an HDR program that more closely allies the goals of HDR with the needs of the private geothermal industry, while at the same time holding to the central promise of HDR technology. That promise - transforming geothermal energy from its current perceived status as a localized resource with limited potential to that of a widely recognized world-class energy resource that will be one of the important contributors to providing the 21st century world with clean energy available virtually everywhere - must be met if the geothermal industry is to prosper and grow in the long run. In order to reconcile the national HDR goals with the immediate interests of the conventional geothermal industry, a multi-faceted HDR effort will be required that: 1) applies HDR technology to the solution of near-term hydrothermal problems, 2) capitalizes on special opportunities to develop HDR technology in projects complimentary to hydrothermal technology, and 3) promotes international cooperation both to maximize the effectiveness of HDR research and development work underway in a number of countries around the world, and to assure US leadership in HDR development and marketing in countries that are just beginning to explore the potential of HDR as an indigenous energy resource. Each of these potential facets of a restructured HDR Program is discussed in more detail below Industry-Coupled HDR Technology Applications. Cooperative Projects, which apply HDR technology and expertise to the solution of hydrothermal problems and increase the productivity of hydrothermal or quasi-hydrothermal (hot wet rock) reservoirs, have the potential to 17PDF Image | Hot Dry Rock Geothermal Energy Development in the USA
