Development of a novel and robust virtual flow meter (VFM) for geothermal applications

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Science awarded a $206,469 Project Grant to Greenpath Systems LLC, a woman-owned small business, to develop a novel and robust virtual flow meter (VFM) for geothermal applications. This grant is funded through the DOE Office of Science Financial Assistance Program (CFDA 81.049), which supports fundamental research and development projects aligned with the agency's mission.

The objective of this project is to advance scientific understanding and technological innovation in the geothermal energy sector. Greenpath Systems, with its expertise in areas such as geothermal resource characterization, flow measurement, and mineral extraction, will leverage this funding to develop an innovative VFM solution to enhance the exploration, monitoring, and performance assessment of geothermal resources. The project period runs from February 12, 2024 to February 11, 2025.
