Pueblo of Jemez (Jemez) proposes to use Department of Energy (DOE) and cost share funding to develop and demonstrate geothermal resource on the Pueblo of Jemez Reservation. In Phase I (Exploration), Jemez would characterize the initial state of the reservoir, obtain the baseline data required to develop, and characterize the geothermal resource using geologic mapping. At this time, the DOE is now evaluating Task 2, Geophysical Surveys.
