C3 Solutions outlines the benefits of geothermal energy in its Geothermal Energy 101 policy paper.
- Geothermal is an underutilized energy source with enormous untapped potential.
- Geothermal is clean, effective, and economically sound.
- Through permitting reform, reducing government barriers, and empowering the private sector, geothermal energy can grow significantly in the United States.
“Geothermal energy is labeled ‘America’s untapped energy giant’ by the Department of Energy, and for good reason. With lower lifecycle emissions than solar and a greater capacity factor than wind, geothermal is a renewable energy source that can produce abundant energy with very few emissions.”
