Introduction

 $1.5 billion DOE Geothermal R&D since 1978

 Results and history of the research have
  become cloudy

 New research proposals for “same” R&D

 PERI resolution: avoid duplication

Two Surveys
Initial Survey (2002)
2 geothermal bibliographic databases online:

 Geothermal Resources Council (GRC)

 DOE Office of Scientific and Technical
   Information (OSTI)

Surveys (cont’d.)

Follow Up (2003-2004)

Main issues:
 Which reports?

 Archive where?

 What document format?

Progress in 2005

 OSTI scanned about 3,200 DOE-funded
  reports from the unclassified vault

 PERI identified DOE geothermal reports not
  at OSTI and shipped them to OSTI for
  scanning

 Reports tagged with and searchable by the
  keyword ‘Geothermal Legacy’

Work in 2006

 GTP, OSTI, and PERI seek missing reports

 Potential sources include:

     National Laboratories

     Scientists and Engineers

     Organizations or individuals

Eureka!
 15,000-plus searchable items in
 this 1970’s-forward collection

 Of the 15,000+, more than 6,000
 are “Geothermal Legacy” reports

 The collection is growing with your help
