科罗拉多能源办公室计划于今年晚些时候推出地热能补助计划，最晚不会晚于11月14日。该补助计划已经在HB22-1381下获得授权，旨在支持在家庭、企业和社区中利用零排放的地热能进行发电、供暖和制冷。

开发商、建筑业主、地方政府、公用事业公司、承包商、社区、地热安装商、大学校园和其他经过计划批准的组织都有资格获得补助。符合条件的项目包括：

• 地热主要供暖或制冷系统的新建或改造安装
• 社区地热系统的新建或改造
• 地热发电
• 设计研究

该计划根据拟议地热项目的类型和范围允许不同的补助金额。有关这些补助金额的更多详细信息，请点击此处。

来自地下热能双党倡议的消息称，科罗拉多和美国西部的几个州都在加大立法力度开发地热资源。今年早些时候，科罗拉多州州长贾里德·波利斯签署了一项新的州级监管批准框架，以扩大地热资源的发电能力。

TheColoradoEnergy Officeis set to launch the Geothermal Energy Grant Program later this year, likely no later than the 14th of November. This grant program has been authorized under HB22-1381 with the goal of supporting the use of zero-emission geothermal energy for electricity generation and space/water heating and cooling in homes, businesses, and communities.

Developers,building owners, local governments, utility companies, contractors, communities, geothermal installers, colleges or university campuses, and other organizations approved by the program are eligible for award of the grant. Eligible projects include:

• New build or retrofit installation of geothermal primary heating or cooling systems
• New build or retrofit community geothermal systems
• Geothermal electricity generation
• Design Studies

Theprogram allows for different grant amounts depending on the type and scope of the proposed geothermal project. More details on these amount of grant awards are available here.

Therehas been an increase in legislative effort to develop the geothermal resources in Colorado and several states in Western U.S. from the HeatBeneath Our Feet bipartisan initiative.Earlier this year, Colorado Governor Jared Polis signed into law the framework for newstate regulatory approvalsthat enable expanded power generation from geothermal resources.
