Geothermal Technologies Program Alaska This Olympic-size swimming pool at Circle Hot Springs, 162 miles northeast of Fairbanks, is geothermally heated, as is the spa hotel shown in the background. A Strong Energy Portfolio for a Strong America Energy efficiency and clean, renewable energy will mean a stronger economy, a cleaner environment, and greater energy independence for America. Working with a wide array of state, community, industry, and university partners, the U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy invests in a diverse portfolio of energy technologies. Much of Alaska’s southern coastal region is part of what is known as the Ring of Fire—a volcanic arc that nearly encircles the Pacific Basin. This includes the Aleutian Islands, the Aleutian Peninsula, and Baranof Island in southeast Alaska, all of which have excellent geothermal resources. Interior Alaska also has several known geothermal areas, stretching from the White Mountains near Fairbanks in the east to the Seward Peninsula, near Nome in the west. Throughout these geothermal areas, and in some isolated spots, are more than 100 hot springs and fumeroles with temperatures that range from 20°C (68°F) to more than 154°C (310°F). Current Development Alaska currently uses 14 of its hot springs primarily for spas or for space heating at the spas. Most notable among these are: • Circle Hot Springs. The springs, which are located near the Yukon River 162 miles northeast of Fairbanks, produce 386 gallons of steaming water (at 60°C or 140°F ) per minute to provide hot water for a spa swimming pool, space heat for the spa hotel, and heat for a greenhouse. A few of these have the potential for generating electricity; others can be used for direct-use applications. The drawback is that much of Alaska’s geothermal resource is far from population centers. Yet, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) has identified several areas that have the potential for economically generating as much as 250 megawatts (MW) of geothermal electric power. This potential may even be far higher, especially if geothermal wells are drilled deep or in the likelihood of attaining supercritical geothermal fluids. Moreover, looking to the future, with the advent of a hydrogen economy Alaska may be able to exploit its geothermal resource to become a leader in the production of hydrogen for the world market. • Manley Hot Springs. The village of Manley Hot Springs, which is about 160 miles west and north of Fairbanks, once had a thriving resort based around the local hot springs. The village is now a small, quiet town that still offers baths fed by the springs. • Chena Hot Springs. The geothermally heated pool and facilities at Chena Hot Springs are 62 miles northeast of Fairbanks. It is a popular private resort that offers lodging, dining, mineral baths,
