1 Exploiting the Free, Renewable Energy, Above and Below your Farm Michigan State University March 10, 2016
2 Core Topics Geothermal Explained Advantages of Geothermal Agricultural Applications of Geothermal Environmental Impact Impact on Electric Utilities Economics Combination with Solar
3 Introduction to Geothermal Introduction to Geothermal Geothermal energy is heat that is generated (from the core) and stored (from the sun) inside the Earth. Geothermal places third among renewable energy production, following hydroelectricity and biomass.
4 Our Free Solar Energy Storage System
5 Types of Geothermal Energy Types Of Geothermal Energy 1. Geoexchange Used to heat and cool air and water through a simple temperature exchange with the constant temperature of the Earth just a few feet below the surface. Efficient, practical & available everywhere. 2. Geothermal Direct-Use Hot water is pumped out of deep geothermal reservoirs and through heat exchangers and control units to warm air and water for various uses. Ground-source heat pump Direct-use geothermal well 3. Geothermal Electricity Production Electricity generated by steam-powered turbines from deep sources of heat over F. Steam Turbine
6 Direct Geothermal Potential In US U.S. Geothermal Potential (Insufficient data for HI & AK) LINK
7 Direct Geothermal Ag Applications Direct-Use Ag Applications Space Heating & Cooling Hot Water Season Extension for Greenhouses & Fields Crop Drying Refrigeration Aquaculture Soil Sterilization for pest & fungus control Food Processing & Dehydration Pasteurization Small-scale power generation
8 Geoexchange* AG Applications *AKA Geothermal Heat Pumps, Ground Source Heat Pumps, Water Source Heat Pumps Geoexchange Ag Applications Heating and cooling for farm buildings of all types Water heating & cooling for dairies, cleaning, etc. Geoexchange can save 30-80% on energy costs!
9 Advantages Of Geothermal Heat Pumps Efficient & Cost Effective Provides 3 to 4 units of energy for every one unit used to power the system. Operational cost savings up to 80% over conventional electric or fossil fuel systems. Can be Utilized Everywhere subterranean temperatures remain relatively constant throughout the U.S. Clean Renewable Energy Works with nature, not against it. Minimizes threats of pollution and global climate change. Safe No flames or carbon monoxide Low Maintenance & Long Life requires only periodic checks and filter changes Scalable systems can range in size from small residential to large commercial applications
10 Geothermal Heat Pump Designs Geothermal Heat Pump Designs 1) Vertical loop 3) Pond loop 2) Horizontal loop 4) Open loop
11 1 Million Michigan Wells 1 Million Free Clean Renewable Energy Sources
12 Distribution Options 3. Distribution Subsystem Forced Air Ductwork Radiant In-Floor Heating Fan Coil Units (for large open areas such as barns)
13
14 Electric Utility Challenges Stagnant or even Declining Load Growth (Revenue) Solar/Wind Rising Peak Demand and associated Costs Michigan Coal Plants going Off-Line Increasing Drain on Capital to support investments in Renewable Energy to Reduce Carbon Emissions Pressure to Control/Reduce Rates to Customers
15 Economics of Geothermal Heat Pumps Economics of Geothermal Heat Pumps Initial cost is offset by energy savings within 2-10 yrs Inexpensive to operate and maintain Energy savings range from 30% to 80% 30% federal tax credit & additional state, local & utility incentives available
16 Heating Source Cost Comparison $40.0 $38.1 $35.0 $ per Million BTUs $30.0 $25.0 $20.0 $15.0 $10.0 $8.7 $9.1 $11.2 $15.2 $16.6 $20.3 $27.2 $29.0 $5.0 $6.1 $-
