6 Million American Households to be Powered by Geothermal Energy, New Survey Reports

"
"The surge in new geothermal power development continues in the US," Gawell stated. According to the Geothermal Energy Association's new report, as of May 2007 there were 75 new geothermal power projects underway in 12 states. This is an increase of 14 projects in an additional three states compared to a survey completed just last November.

"New federal and state initiatives to promote geothermal energy are paying off," commented Karl Gawell, GEA's Executive Director. "State renewable standards coupled with the federal production tax credit are creating a renaissance in US geothermal power production," he added."
