Innovative Technical Solutions, Inc. (ITSI) evaluated
geothermal potential on selected military bases in the
U.S. for the Department of Defense. Assessment
activities included literature reviews, interviews with
local specialists, geothermal field investigations at 3
installations, and development of conceptual
geothermal occurrence models. Occurrence models
integrate geothermal system characteristics with local
structural/tectonic characteristics to identify potential
geothermal targets. Spatial analyses of selected
coverages using GIS were also performed for the
ranges at Nellis AFB in order to identify possible
geothermal targets.
NAF El Centro has ́highî utility-grade geothermal
potential and at least four other installations
investigated warrant additional investigation.
Twenty-one western U.S. installations have direct-use
geothermal potential, with bases in Oregon,
Nevada and California having the greatest potential.
