The Railroad Commission of Texas has issued its first permit for a deep geo-pressured, geothermal well to Sage Geosystems in Atascosa County.
Located south of San Antonio in the Anaconcho Formation, this well permit marks a significant milestone in Texas\u2019 energy sector as the first deep geo-pressured, geothermal permit issued since the Texas Legislature transferred regulatory ity for these types of wells from the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality to the RRC.
The well will be used in electricity generation by the San Miguel Electric Cooperative to serve its customers. Sage Geosystems has entered into a land use agreement with the cooperative to develop a 3-MW Geopressured Geothermal System energy storage facility.
The RRC\u2019s regulatory framework ensures that all geothermal projects adhere to rigorous environmental and safety standards while helping develop this emerging industry which has substantial skill and technology overlap with oil and gas industry.\uff082025-02-26\uff09<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
