West Virginia Geothermal Energy Conference To Be Held May 22

This is a notice I received about the first-ever West Virginia Geothermal Energy Conference.  A year or so ago there was an interesting press release from, I believe, Southern Methodist Univ., that said that WV had the greatest geothermal energy potential in the East.
The web link below provides information regarding the upcoming West Virginia Geothermal Energy Conference, being held May 22nd, 2012 in Flatwoods, WV. This event is sponsored by the West Virginia Division of Energy, in partnership with the West Virginia Geological and Economic Survey, and is being hosted by Marshall University. This is a first-time event for the State, and is a first step in understanding the potential for future geothermal energy production and use in WV. There is no cost for attending this one-day event, but we are asking folks planning to attend to register for conference facility and lunch planning purposes. Please use the following website to learn more about the conference, including conference topics and hotel information, conference contacts for more information, and to register to attend, if interested.
