Space/Structure Heating Key‐pad polling participants selected space/ structure heating one of the most sensible types ofgeothermalusetodevelopinitially. The combination of a mountain climate and dependence on electric and/or truck transported propane heat makes geothermal heating an attractive strategy in Rico. Most participants envisioned a geothermal heating district as the proper management strategy. Geothermal heating districts, also described in the Legal Analysis section of this master plan, are administrative structures used to manage and distribute direct use of geothermal energy for heating purposes. Examples Boise Heating District The largest direct use geothermal heating system in the U.S. is composed of four sub districts, supplies heat to businesses and homes in downtown Boise. Two districts, the City of Boise and the Warm Water Springs heating district serve public customers while the Veterans Administration (VA) district and the State District provide heat to VA and State buildings. The four districts provide heat to over 200 homes and 85 FIGURE 19 – HOT SPRINGS IN PAGOSA SPRINGS commercial or government buildings. The systems typically have positive cash flows and until recently costs have been up to 30% lower than natural gas. In the past two years, as the price of natural gas has fallen, prices have become approximately equal. Town of Pagosa Springs Since 1982 the Town of Pagosa Springs has owned and operated a municipal geothermal heating system. The system currently serves private residences, businesses, schools, town buildings, and churches. The system is manually operated and monitored on a daily basis. The system typically operates with positive cash flow except during years requiring large capital investments. Maintenance of the system consumes a large portion of the annual budget, and in recent years has become a top priority. Currently the system requires one part‐time employee to manage all aspects of the system. Single Use Geothermal Heating System – Box Canyon Lodge and Hot Springs, Ouray, CO In addition to harnessing geothermal energy for hot springs and spa purposes, Ouray’s Box Canyon Lodge uses geothermal energy to heat their hotel rooms. The Lodge also uses geothermal to heat water in guest rooms and laundry facilities. With greater reliance on geothermal heat and energy efficiency the Lodge has been able to cut its use of natural gas by 70%. Electric Power Generation State and federal agencies have developed programs, incentives, and regulations over the past decade aimed at encouraging renewable electrical energy development. For example, the Colorado Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS) requires that an increasing share of electricity demand is met by renewable sources. Geothermal electric power is eligible as renewable energy under RPS . The Federal Renewable Electricity Production Tax Credit (PTC) is a per‐kilowatt‐hour tax credit for electricity generated by renewable 21PDF Image | Geothermal Energy Master Plan Town of Rico, Colorado
