Geothermal Resource Potential by Field

This data set contains the spatial footprints of the geothermal fields used in the statewide technical resource potential estimate for Integrated Resource Planning and SB 100. Geothermal field delineations are defined by KGRAs, BLM Geothermal Leasing Areas, or are constructed using an appropriate radius to support the estimated electrical generating capacity, assuming a circular field and power density of 10 MW per square kilometer. Estimates of electrical generating capacity and the capacity already in production are also provided, as well as a binary indicator of whether the field lies entirely within a protected area or not. Each of these components allow for the net undeveloped technical geothermal resource potential to be calculated for each geothermal field.
