Appendix A. State of the States and State of the Tribal Lands for Geothermal Resources and Permitting W ASHING T ON Resource Geography While the state has high volcanic activity, only the Cascade Range holds high potential for moderate to high temperature geothermal resources, particularly in Northern Cascade Mountains (Nielsen 2002). The most recent assessment of the state’s geothermal potential was completed in 1994 and identified 34 thermal springs (primarily in the Cascade Mountains) and 941 thermal wells, primarily located in the Columbia Basin (USDOE 2007a). Utilization Geothermal resources in Washington have been virtually undeveloped. There are no district heating systems or large buildings using the resource. There are no commercial developments such as aquaculture, greenhouses and no power plants. Resource use is currently limited to recreational and therapeutic applications (Geo-Heat 2007). Low energy prices and lack of knowledge about the state’s resource base have contributed to this current status (Fleischmann 2007). Several exploration leases are currently pending but are associated with important scenic areas where environmental considerations could prohibit development. There are no near-term plans to develop geothermal resources in the Columbia Basin (USDOE 2007a). Near-term developments of any kind are likely to focus, at least initially, on the expansion of direct-use applications, though literature cites one geothermal power plant project in development, with a potential MW capacity of 50-100 (Richter 2007). Technical Capabilities The geothermal experts at the Washington State University Extension Energy Program have world-class expertise in high- and low-temperature geothermal energy. The group has prepared a series of guides on developing geothermal energy, and a series of case studies on geothermal heat pumps (USDOE 2007a, WSUEEP 2004). Electrical Power Generation and Capacity Potential projected geothermal electrical output is currently undefined, but literature estimates site a short-term projection of 50 MW, with long-term projections of 600 MW for sites at Mount Baker, and Wind River in the Cascade Range (Richter 2007). The USGS estimates geothermal resource potential for electricity generation to be 127 MW (Nielsen 2002). Tribal Lands Map and data for geothermal resources on tribal lands in Washington are available through the DOE tribal energy program at: http://www1.eere.energy.gov/tribalenergy/guide/geo_Washington.html (USDOE 2007k). Tribes for which information is available are listed in table A-10 below. Draft PEIS for Geothermal Leasing in the Western US A-41 May 2008
