Low-Temperature Hydrothermal Resource Potential Estimate
Compilation of data (spreadsheet and shapefiles) for several low-temperature resource types, including isolated springs and wells, delineated area convection systems, sedimentary basins and coastal plains sedimentary systems. For each system, we include estimates of the accessible resource base, mean extractable resource and beneficial heat. Data compiled from USGS and other sources.
General locations are provided in the spreadsheet; specific locations are provided in the associated shapefiles. The paper (submitted to GRC 2016) describing the methodology and analysis is also included.

"description": "This paper provides a summary and additional analysis of these assessments of shallow (~3 km), low-temperature (30degC - 150degC) geothermal resources in the United States that are suitable for use in direct-use applications. This analysis considers six types of geothermal systems, spanning both hydrothermal and enhanced geothermal systems (EGS). We outline the primary data sources and quantitative parameters used to describe resources in each of these categories and present summary statistics of the total resources available."
