Geothermal energy is heat energy generated and stored in the Earth. With the awareness of the society about environmental issues, geothermal power is developing worldwide. It is cost-effective, reliable, sustainable, and environmentally friendly but has hi ...
Shallow and deep geothermal resources can be used to produce different energy services, such as district heating, electricity and cooling. Some of these services vary throughout the year. To provide them, different conversion technologies can be used. In o ...
The in-situ thermal response test provides an effective method to determine the ground thermal properties required for the design of a geothermal energy installation. This paper presents a unique compact testing device for in-situ thermal response testing ...
The study deals with theoretical as well as with practical aspects of the conversion of geothermal heat to electricity. The report is divided into three parts: • Part I: General study • Part II: Practical experience: planning & operation of geothermal powe ...
Shallow or deep geothermal resources can be used to produce different energy services: district heating, electricity and cooling. The combined production of these services is done using conversion technologies, such as flash systems, binary cycles or heat ...
This paper details the development of a systematic methodology using thermo-economic modeling that can be used to identify the optimal exploitation schemes of geothermal resources. A multi-period approach is used, integrating the superstructure of exploita ...
To be profitable, a geothermal energy system must effectively and economically convert a given resource into useful energy services to be delivered to the consumer during different periods of the year. These services include electricity, district heating, ...
Although the adaptation of deep foundations into heat exchangers is receiving growing attention, geothermal research is focusing mostly on energy optimization aspects. Meanwhile, the primary bearing function of the foundation must remain unaltered. Also, p ...
