Appendix A. State of the States and State of the Tribal Lands for Geothermal Resources and Permitting WYOMING Resource Geography The majority of Wyoming’s geothermal resources are concentrated in the state’s northwest corner, in and around Yellowstone National Park. Elsewhere, groundwater at elevated temperatures occurs beneath large areas and research indicates that the state has a substantial geothermal resource base. High- temperature geothermal hotspots outside of environmentally sensitive areas (such as Yellowstone and the protected area of Hot Springs State Park in Thermopolis) could be suitable for electricity generation (USDOE 2007a). One KGRA near Jackson Hole has been identified, and may be capable of yielding high-temperature water (aside from Yellowstone). The possibility of volcanic and magmatic activity exists along the northern end of Jackson Hole, which may indicate geothermal reservoirs. Outside of this area it is likely geothermal development will require very deep drilling analogous to oil and gas exploration (Lyons 2003, USDOE 2007a). Utilization development in the state has so far been limited to direct-use specifically for recreational and therapeutic purposes. Concern and surrounding the development of geothermal resources near National Park has precluded development of resources near (USDOE 2007a). Wyoming’s sparse population is also a causal Geothermal applications, controversy Yellowstone Yellowstone factor associated with limited geothermal development. Finally, most renewable energy efforts in the state have focused primarily on harnessing wind power (Fleischmann 2007). A-44 Technical Capabilities Wyoming's coal resources are among the richest in the world, and the state possesses a wide variety of other energy sources. Renewable energy efforts are currently concentrated on harnessing wind energy, and little work has been done to harness Wyoming's geothermal potential. In the 1980s studies were done for the Western Area Power Administration to evaluate the geothermal potential of resources near Thermopolis for electricity generation (USDOE 2007a). Electrical Power Generation and Capacity With one project in development and no existing geothermal power plants, Wyoming has a literature-estimated geothermal electricity potential of 0.2 MW (Richter 2007). Estimates for short and long-term potential are not available. The USGS has estimated that the state has no potential for electricity generation from geothermal sources without inclusion of Yellowstone Park (Nielsen 2002). There is interest in the potential for developing small geothermal electricity units in conjunction with oil and gas wells present in Wyoming.
