TRW study urges 2 phase geothermal project proposal

TRW Systems Group scientists urge a two phase East Mesa geothermal plan to deliver 10 megawatts within three years. Phase 1 would cost 4.1 million over 18 months, Phase 2 about 17 million over 24 months to build the plant. The 15 acre facility would use deep wells to extract superheated water from a reservoir 4200 to 6200 feet deep and recycle it for more than a century with minimal environmental impact.
