Abstract

Geothermal energy is a significant source of renewable power. In Germany, geothermal technology incorporates a wide range of solutions as shown in this paper. Briefly, this technology is generally based on geothermal loop systems with double wells. There are also five well heat exchanger geothermal systems and two shaft water geothermal systems operating in Germany. Eleven geothermal power plants of 21.8 MW in sum are binary cycle operated and using coolants. Four of them generate electric power while seven cogenerate electric power and heat.
