Session Abstract

In 2015, researchers at the University of Regina, Saskatchewan Canada, proposed to complete a research project initiated in 1979, to demonstrate the use of geothermal energy on the university campus, using heat from the Williston Sedimentary Basin.  Hydrogeology and geothermal productive capacity data  from a single well supported the reliable development of this resource in the greater Regina area, but was never completed. Using focus studies and development of a feasibility study the renewed project can be integrated into existing heating infrastructure, and be immediately operational.  This renewed project will showcase green energy technology and infrastructure, with education, scientific, social and engineering research components.
