The U.S. Department of Energy recently announced a new initiative "GeoPowering the West," an effort to promote the development and use of geothermal power in the western states. According to DOE, all of Arizona's neighboring states have good geothermal resources, with California, Nevada and Utah listed as the top three states with electrical generation potential and New Mexico considered a high potential state. Arizona does not make the rankings.
