Description
The principal research objective of this program is the development of successful economic exploration techniques for the location, evaluation and development of low-to moderate-temperature geothermal resources for use by the general public and private industry. The development of such a program will require the close coordination of research in the three geoscience disciplines: geology, geophysics and geochemistry. Current plans call for the complete development of three demonstration projects utilizing low-to moderate-temperature geothermal energy. The first two projects are somewhat experimental in that they must develop a successful, economic exploration and development program. The third demonstration project then must be brought on stream utilizing these cost-effective techniques. While the detailed or site-specific exploration, evaluation and development programs are in progress, the reconnaissance exploration will continue to attempt to locate additional areas of interest over the entire state of Arizona. At present most data is confined to the Basin and Range physiographic province so that extensive exploration is ,necessary to identify potential geothermal resources which may exist in the Colorado Plateau region. p.91
