Geothermal Energy
- Recovering the Earth’s Natural Heat
1.
Hot Water
– in natural reservoirs
– known as “Conventional ” or “Hydrothermal” systems
Hot Rocks (EGS)
2.
– Hot Dry Rocks
Slide 5
Geothermal Resources
Slide 6
Geothermal Energy
- Why geothermal energy?
Conventional Geothermal Energy technology is well proven
Advantages of Geothermal Energy







Varied uses – electricity, direct heat applications
Renewable energy – access to carbon credits
Domestic source of energy
Base load, long life, power source – high availability >95%
50,000 times energy of known world oil & gas reserves (US Dept Energy)
Technology driving costs down c.f. fossil fuel prices increasing
Attractive to green/ethical funds
Sub-surface Tasks
 Both Conventional & EGS - sustainable water circulation flow rate
 EGS - fracture stimulation to create a large underground reservoir
Slide 7
OD Geothermal Energy Project (100%)
Location (2,899 km2)
Slide 8
OD Geothermal Energy Project
Past Activities
 Blanche No1 well
