The Geothermal Energy Association (GEA) and Geothermal Resources Council (GRC) have released this new joint report titled “The Values of Geothermal Energy: A Discussion of the Benefits Geothermal Power Provides to the Future U.S. Power System.” Prepared by Ben Matek, GEA’s Industry Analyst, and Brian Schmidt, Librarian, GRC, the new report documents the many benefits of geothermal power. Looking beyond the benefits to the power system, the report also summarizes other key benefits of geothermal power including economic and environmental benefits. “Geothermal energy is a renewable power source that can provide baseload and flexible power, quickly adjusting to fit the needs set by variable renewable energy technologies,” the report states.
