1 Heating and Cooling of Industrial Buildings with Shallow Geothermal Energy

2 IGO International Geothermal Office Tasks and Objectives: Furtherance international activities for German geothermal-players Enhancement export opportunities for German companies Transfer of technology, know-how and information between universities, industry and the community Establishment and expansion of the scientific network with partner universities and research institutions Implementation and networking of applied research between universities and industry Increasing the level of awareness of geothermal energy knowledge transfer amongst the general public, politicians, public administrators and decision makers Dr. Claus Heske International Geothermal Office - IGO Lima Dezentrale Strom- und Wärmeversorgung mit Erneuerbaren Energien in Peru Folie 2

3 BVG - Bundesverband Geothermie e.v. - German Geothermal Association The German Geothermal Association (BVG), established in 1991, currently has about 600 active companies and individual members. With members coming from a variety of different professions, the BVG advocates the use of all existing geothermal technologies ranging from shallow to deep, and the cooling, heating, and production of electricity. The following are the main functions of the BVG: Informing the public about the advantages and the possible uses of the technology Dialogue with politicians and political leaders Improvement of the frame conditions and the political situation on a national-, European- and international level The support of technological development and researches More information: Dr. Claus Heske International Geothermal Office - IGO Lima Dezentrale Strom- und Wärmeversorgung mit Erneuerbaren Energien in Peru Folie 3

5 Geothermal Energy Source and Definition The Earth Temperatures in the Earth Mantle Outer Core Crust Temperatures 54 F 7,200 F Depht 1,250 mi 2,500 mi Inner Core 9,000 F 3,700 mi Geothermal Energy is the energy stored beneath the surface of the solid earth in form of heat (VDI 4640 regulation). Synonyms include Geothermal Heat. Dr. Claus Heske International Geothermal Office - IGO Lima Dezentrale Strom- und Wärmeversorgung mit Erneuerbaren Energien in Peru Folie 5

7 Different Types of Geothermal Energy Utilisation / Technologies Geothermal systems can be classified under various aspects: shallow and deep geothermal energy, the depth of the heat exploitation type of use of geothermal energy. different energy extraction technologies different geoscientific parameters Source: BMWi (2014):Deep Geothermal Energy Dr. Claus Heske International Geothermal Office - IGO Lima Dezentrale Strom- und Wärmeversorgung mit Erneuerbaren Energien in Peru Folie 7

8 Different Types of Geothermal Energy Utilisation / Technologies In the case of shallow geothermal energy, the geothermal heat is extracted from shallow depths within the earth down to 150 m, e.g. by using: ground heat collectors, borehole heat exchangers (BHE), groundwater wells or energy piles. Heating and Cooling of Buildings This shallow geothermal energy can only be exploited by using heat pumps. Technical work is necessary to raise the heat from a lower to a higher temperature level.

9 Different Types of Geothermal Energy Utilisation / Technologies Deep geothermal energy involves systems in which the geothermal energy is extracted by deep wells and the energy can be used directly. According to this definition, deep geothermal energy comprises depths of more than 400 m (in Germany!) and temperatures exceeding 20 C. Generally it is more common to restrict the term deep geothermal energy to depths of below 1,000 m and temperatures exceeding 60 C.

10 Different Types of Geothermal Energy Utilisation / Technologies Deep geothermal energy includes the following systems which are defined by the enthalpy. The enthalpy categorizes the heat content and is a measure of the energy within a thermo-dynamic system. Hydrothermal systems with low enthalpy Hydrothermal systems with high enthalpy Petrothermal systems Source: BMWi (2014):Deep Geothermal Energy Dr. Claus Heske International Geothermal Office - IGO Lima Dezentrale Strom- und Wärmeversorgung mit Erneuerbaren Energien in Peru Folie 10

11 Different Types of Geothermal Energy Utilisation / Technologies Deep geothermal energy: hydrothermal systems with low enthalpy: Primarily thermal water located underground is directly (or if necessary via a heat exchanger) used to feed district heating systems, for agricultural, for industrial, or for balneological purposes. Aquifers with thermal (> 20 C), warm ( C) or hot (> 100 C) water Temperatures above approx. 100 C allow the generation of electricity.

13 Different Types of Geothermal Energy Utilisation / Technologies Deep geothermal energy: Petrothermal systems Mainly involves utilisation of the energy stored in the rock. Hot-Dry-Rock-Systems (HDR) or Enhanced-Geothermal-Systems (EGS) These systems extract energy from the rock itself they are therefore largely independent of water-bearing structures. The hot rock (generally the crystalline basement) is used as a heat exchanger. HDR / EGS systems are primarily used for power generation.
