The Geothermal Lease Bill
Geothermal lease sales to speed up under new CLEAN Act
Committing Leases for Energy Access Now Act CLEAN Act
Mixed: some good, some bad ·
If passed, the bill would let the government sell more geothermal leases faster, and require new leases when old ones end.
Our take
What we think, in plain words.
The bill could help energy firms get more land to drill, which might lower power costs, but it also risks giving companies easier access without extra oversight, so citizens should watch the debate.
