Abstract
During the current fiscal year (FY 2000) the DOE Geothermal Program is shifting its focus from laboratory based R&D that results in technology improvements to field verification projects that result in the deployment of new technologies. This change in focus will emphasize cost-shared field tests with industry, and the laboratory and computational research that supports field verification. The requested budget for fiscal year 2001 will reflect the change in direction.
A new structure is being used to organize the Geothermal Program. All aspects of this structure will place strong consideration on cost-shared, joint projects with the geothermal industry. The major components of the new structure are described below, and the tentative proportion of funding is indicated.
