Deep exploratory test holes for waste repository investigations

A significant number of deep boreholes have been drilled within the Permian Basin to investigate subsurface geologic conditions for waste storage utility. As these investigations have yet to reveal a single ''acceptable site,'' it is quite clear that many deep test holes can be expected to be drilled and several study areas ''abandoned'' before specific sites for pilot plants and/or for permanent repositories are selected. Indeed, this has been the case in the Permian Basin, and there is little… more

Operational, cost, and technical study of large windpower systems integrated with an existing electric utility. Final report

Detailed wind energy assessment from the available wind records, and evaluation of the application of wind energy systems to an existing electric utility were performed in an area known as the Texas Panhandle, on the Great Plains. The study area includes parts of Texas, eastern New Mexico, the Oklahoma Panhandle and southern Kansas. The region is shown to have uniformly distributed winds of relatively high velocity, with average wind power density of 0.53 kW/m/sup 2/ at 30 m height at Amarillo,… more
