## End Uses and Surface Applications
146+
147+
SAM Economic Models support a variety of geothermal end-use options and surface applications, extending beyond pure electricity generation to include:
148+
149+
* **Electricity**
150+
* **Direct-Use Heat**
151+
* **Cogeneration** (Combined Heat and Power; CHP)
152+
* **Cooling** (Absorption Chiller)
153+
154+
For detailed information on how these different configurations are modeled financially—including cash flow reporting adjustments, CHP cost allocation methodologies, and configuration-specific examples—see the [SAM Economic Models: End Uses and Surface Applications documentation](SAM-EM_End-Uses-and-Surface-Applications.html).
