As geothermal development gains momentum in the energy transition, developers, investors, and counsel must navigate a complex web of legal and commercial challenges. This webinar provides a practical overview of the geothermal project lifecycle, with a focus on lease structuring and navigating regulatory and financing hurdles in key U.S. markets.
Topics will include land acquisition strategies, geothermal estate ownership, water law considerations, well permitting, plant siting, power purchase agreements, and public utility issues, along with emerging opportunities involving co-located data centers. Attendees will gain a clear understanding of how geothermal lease terms align with broader project development and commercialization milestones—and how to identify potential issues early that could delay project execution or complicate financing.
The confirmed speakers for this program, which is approved for one General Continuing Legal Education credits in the state of Colorado, are as follows:
