Geothermal Education Office

Appreciation to Our Generous Sponsors and Volunteers from Throughout the Geothermal Industry!


Appreciation to the Geothermal Technologies Program of the U.S. Department of Energy, which gave Sponsorship to the development of this website and to our other publications from 1989 through 2005.

SPECIAL ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS


Over the years, none of our best work would have been possible without the amazing volunteer assistance we received from the national and international geothermal community. Literally all of our products represent collaborative efforts with geothermal experts. It is impossible to name all those who helped us with so many technical details, but just as an example, look at this list below of individuals and organizations that consulted with us just for the Geothermal Slide Show alone!

The Geothermal Slide Show project was conceived by Marilyn Nemzer and George Frye and compiled and organized by by Anna Carter and Marilyn Nemzer. Production of the slide show has been a collaborative industry effort. Over fifty individuals and companies have contributed their photos, time and expertise, including:

Most of the computer graphics and the basic look of the slides were created by Gordon Loveland, under the direction of Joel Renner at the Idaho National Engineering and Environmental Lab. Several graphics were created or edited by Gary Varnell at Digital Graphic Studios (who was introduced to the project by Gordon Bloomquist of the Washington State University Energy Office) and the computer graphics staff at the University of Hawaii (through Don Thomas).
