In this virtual briefing, experts from RMI, Rhodium Group, and the Utah Governor’s Office of Economic Opportunity will discuss recent developments in next-generation geothermal.
As electricity demand soars, states face mounting pressure to enable the expansion of competitive, reliable power systems with equipment sourced from secure supply chains. Next-generation geothermal is poised to meet this moment not just in a handful of states out west but in a growing swath of the entire nation—provided supportive measures are in place.
In this virtual briefing, experts from RMI, Rhodium Group, and the Utah Governor’s Office of Economic Opportunity will discuss recent developments in next-generation geothermal; the opportunity to build its supply chain in the United States; how states can unlock economic gains from this fast-growing industry; and what economic developers and policymakers across the country can learn early from early leaders such as Utah. Rhodium Group experts will share a modeling of state-level policy in places that sit at the cusp of the next wave of geothermal power projects: Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Louisiana, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Texas.

Note
Targeted, well-designed, ambitious policies enacted by states can leverage the immense changes and investment opportunities on the horizon to drive deployment of geothermal on the grid.
