  4. Background Issue & Cost • Working fluids are typically a valuable resource that is wasted in the geothermal power generation process. • Theworking fluid needs to be purchased in order to accommodate those losses. • If the geothermal power generation process takes place in arid regions, then the losses in water can become very costly.

  7. A3 FORM • Issue: Working fluids are typically a valuable resource that is wasted in the geothermal power generation process. • Background and Cost: 5-10% of the working fluid (water) is lost in the underground reservoir. Typically, the working fluid needs to be purchased in order to accommodate those losses. • Current State: If the geothermal power generation process takes place in arid regions, then the losses in water can become very costly.

  8. A3 FORM CONTINUED Goals and Targets: ·    To reduce the cost associated with the purchasing more working fluid. ·    To locate a cheaper working fluid that can satisfy the needs of the process.

  10. COST & BENEFITS (ROI) Implementation Cost: • Cost of building a IGCC (Integrated gasification combined cycle)power plant • Cost of building a Geothermal power plant Implementation Benefit: • Government pays you for having zero carbon emissions ($50 million grant) • Reduced cost of fluid transportation • Fluid loss in reservoir is no longer an expense • More sustainable • Environmentally friendly

  11. LESSONS LEARNED Waste as Resource • Carbon dioxide is considered to be a detrimental substance to the environment, and in most cases, it is wasted. By using it, we make efficient use of waste and decrease the environmental damage. Partnership • One of our ideas is to make partnerships with coal companies to make use of their waste. What can be learned from this idea is that partnership can be a very efficient way to solve problems.
