Join us for a dynamic session that connects macro-level strategy—capital discipline, modularity, and faster development cycles—with micro-level technology advances, such as high-temperature drilling fluids and lost circulation control. Whether you're focused on engineering, investment, policy, or commercialization, this conversation will help you understand what it takes to scale geothermal, both above and below ground.

SPEAKER HIGHLIGHTS:
Sinclair Well Products: High-temperature drilling fluids, lubricants, and lost circulation materials that solve real-world barriers to geothermal deployment
Exceed GeoEnergy: What can transition from oil-and-gas style execution frameworks to increase the bankability for geothermal energy infrastructure

PNW RIG Presents "Exploring the Techno-Economics of Geothermal Electricity in Washington State”

Submitted by KNoren on Jun 02, 2025
The Washington Geologic Information Portal has detailed data resources, freely available, that can inform technical and economic feasibility analyses of geothermal energy projects. Dr. Lee Florea, a program manager at the WA Dept of Natural Resources has kindly offered to provide us with an unofficial overview of the portal’s content. Jonathan Pezzino, principal & owner of SWS, contributes to NREL's open source geothermal techno-economic simulator GEOPHIRES. Jonathan will demonstrate example models constructed using GEOPHIRES with data downloaded from the WA Geologic Portal. His examples will include some of the more promising geothermal resources in the state. Join in discussion with other members of the Pacific Northwest RIG as we examine these tools for modeling the techno-economic feasibility of geothermal power plants.

Opportunities for Advancing Geothermal Energy Development in the Western USA

Submitted by KNoren on May 02, 2025
Webinar sponsored jointly by Washington Citizens Climate Lobby and the Pacific Northwest Regional Interest Group of Geothermal Rising.
Ed Butler is one of the organizers of the Geothermal Rising Pacific Northwest Regional Interest Group and also is a volunteer with the Washington State Citizens Climate Lobby (CCL). The Citizens' Climate Lobby is a non-partisan advocacy organization with members throughout the USA. Two of its priority areas in 2025 are Permitting Reform and Building Decarbonization, which align nicely with Geothermal Rising’s mission. Geothermal Rising is having its annual Geothermal Hill Day in mid-May and in July, CCL will convene over 1,000 volunteers to meet with most members of Congress, from all states and most legislative districts. There is a growing interest by CCL in geothermal energy. This webinar is an opportunity to bring these communities together. The presentation will provide an overview of geothermal energy, how the Western US can apply it to its growing needs for electricity, and will cover relevant public policies that can accelerate geothermal deployment.
