Appendix A. State of the States and State of the Tribal Lands for Geothermal Resources and Permitting ID AHO Resource Geography Idaho has both low-temperature geothermal sources for potential direct-use and high-temperature sites (concentrated in the southern part of the state) that may provide opportunities for electricity production (Crimp 2006). Utilization Current development focuses on community heating though construction of the state’s first geothermal power generation facility, a 10-megawatt plant at Raft River (approximately 200 miles southeast of Boise), was completed in January 2008. (USDOE 2007a, USGI 2008). Past exploration and development efforts have been limited as low energy costs and the small size of the state’s population did not necessitate new sources of electric power . Thus further exploration and characterization of Idaho’ s geothermal resources is needed to better define the state’s resource potential (Fleischmann 2007). In addition to Raft River, three other sites are currently being investigated for potential electricity generation: the China Cap site in Caribou County (with a literature-estimated capacity of 100 MW), an area near Willow Springs (which has a literature estimated-capacity of 100 MW) (USDOE 2007a) and a site at Crane Creek, in western Idaho (with a literature-estimated value of 100-179 MW) (Neely 2007). Technical Capabilities The Idaho National Laboratory houses national expertise in the research and development of geothermal energy resources. The laboratory maintains databases of geological characteristics to aid in the characterization and development of geothermal reservoirs nationwide. Additionally, the Energy Division of the Idaho Department of Water Resources provides technical support for geothermal projects in the state and conducts educational outreach activities to promote further geothermal development (USDOE 2007a). Electric Power Generation and Capacity Four projects are in development, with a total literature-estimated MW potential of 39-239. Literature-cited potential energy production from geothermal resources places estimates at 855 MW short-term and 1,670 long- term (Richter 2007) with an overall electricity generation potential between 366-5 million MW, depending on development scenarios (USDOE 2007a). Tribal Lands Tribal lands in Idaho make up roughly 1.1% of the state’s land. The largest reservation is the Fort Hall Reservation north of Pocatello where potential for geothermal resource development has been suggested by research in the area (Fleischmann 2007). Maps and data for geothermal resources on tribal lands in Idaho are available through the DOE tribal energy program at: Draft PEIS for Geothermal Leasing in the Western US A-19 May 2008
