I know low temp. geothermal is much more expensive than natural gas. I think high temp geothermal is much more expensive. This is not Iceland - where it can be cheaply done do to the occurrence of volcanoes and there is no natural gas around.

Judging by the map above the best places for high temperature geothermal are out west where there’s not much natural gas.
