Abstract

In 2008, the Australian Government established the AUD50 M Geothermal Drilling Program (GDP), designed to provide AUD7M matching funding to each of seven proof-of-concept projects to drill two wells and establish closed-loop flow. Ultimately, only two wells were drilled as part of this Program. Examining the reasons for the failure of this Program provide important lessons for any future stimulus of geothermal development
