My first thoughts as well.

Sink some wells, build some steam turbines and transmission lines.

Some of it already is. The Idaho Capitol building and a few other buildings in downtown Boise are heated using geothermal energy.

My Uncle was drilling wells for thermal all around the edges of the Park, thirty years or so ago. It was a govt. project.

But you could heat every home in the U.S.A. with all the paper work you'd have to file with the e.p.a.
