Geothermal Energy Development

Geothermal Energy Development
The Geothermal program, which began at Berkeley Lab in 1973, has made major contributions to geothermal exploration technologies, reservoir characterization and performance evaluation technologies. This program has contributed to much of the Division's scientific core capabilities, which are now being utilized in current major new programs such as nuclear waste storage, environmental remediation, and enhanced recovery of oil and gas from tight reservoirs.
