Golden State Sees Advantages of Geothermal Energy

The Salton Sea has one of the largest geothermal power resources on the plant and California is now looking toward how to use it to both save the environment and create long term quality sustaible economies.
Adjacent to the Salton Sea are geothermal plants that hold leases with the State Lands Commission, on which the Lt. Governor is a voting member. Imperial County has some of the highest-producing geothermal wells in the world, reflecting the region's great potential for renewable energy development. In 2016, geothermal energy accounted for about 4% of California's electricity, and about 20% of in-state renewable generation. Investing in geothermal energy production in Imperial County can help reinvigorate the local economy and contribute to the state's renewable energy portfolio.
