Geofluid and New Zealand University Of Aucland Xrays Paris Geothermal Reservoir To Unleash Geothermal Potential

Unveiling Paris' Hidden Gem: Geothermal Energy Revolutionizing Heating

Paris, known for its romantic streets and iconic landmarks, harbors a secret beneath its surface that is revolutionizing the way its citizens stay warm during the chilly winter months. Beneath the cobblestone pathways lies a vast geothermal reservoir, quietly providing low-energy heating to over 250,000 homes and even the bustling airport.

Thanks to the innovative collaboration between researchers from the University of Auckland in New Zealand and Geofluid, a leading geothermal consulting company, Parisians are enjoying the benefits of this renewable energy source like never before. Using advanced modeling techniques, this dynamic team has created a detailed picture of the reservoir, unlocking its potential to optimize Paris' energy resources.

Employing the cutting-edge Leapfrog Geothermal software, the researchers have constructed a comprehensive geological model, shedding light on the intricate pressure and temperature changes within the reservoir. This visualization tool serves as a beacon of hope for sustainable management, ensuring that Paris can achieve its ambitious zero-carbon heating goals while preserving its environmental integrity.

As Paris strives towards a greener future, leveraging its hidden geothermal gem has become a cornerstone of its sustainability efforts. With each home warmed by the Earth's natural energy, the city moves one step closer to reducing its carbon footprint and embracing renewable solutions.

Pertamina Geothermal Energy,GDC and AGIL to develop 200 MW Suswa ,Narok Geothermal Field

Pertamina Geothermal Energy, GDC, and AGIL Agree to Accelerate Development of 2 Geothermal Fields in Kenya By: Robert Buluma Nairobi, Kenya, March 8, 2024 – PT Pertamina Geothermal Energy Tbk (PGE) has reached an agreement with Kenya's geothermal development companies, Geothermal Development Company Ltd. (GDC), and Africa Geothermal International Ltd. (AGIL), to expedite the development of geothermal fields in the African nation. Exploration of two geothermal fields in Kenya, developed by PGE along with its partners, is expected to commence in 2024. In high-level discussions held at GDC's headquarters in Nairobi on Wednesday (3/6/2024), PGE and GDC discussed the support from the Kenyan government in accelerating the geothermal field development project in Suswa, a volcanic area located in Narok, Kenya. GDC is a government-owned geothermal developer in Kenya. The PGE delegation, led by President Director Julfi Hadi and accompanied by PGE's Director of Exploration and Develop

Polands Geothermal Wells hits 5km depth Eyeing a 7Km Threshold

Geothermal Milestone Reached: Banska PGP-4 Well in Szaflary, Poland Hits 5-Kilometer Depth By : Robert Buluma In a significant development for geothermal energy enthusiasts, drilling operations at the Banska PGP-4 well in Szaflary, Poland have reached a depth of 5 kilometers, marking a major milestone in the project's progress towards its 7-kilometer target. Since its inception, the ambitious geothermal drilling project in Szaflary has been making steady strides. As of the end of 2023, the well has successfully reached a depth of 5000 meters, uncovering promising results along the way. Notably, the well has tapped into a sizable reservoir boasting temperatures of 120 °C. The drilling will persist until it reaches the targeted depth of 7000 meters, where another aquifer is anticipated. The entire drilling endeavor is slated for completion within the first quarter of 2024. Initiated in 2019, the plans to drill a 7-kilometer geothermal well in Podhale, Szaflary aimed at gathering cruc

Eavor Goes Deeper in Geretesried In Search For Geothermal

Revolutionizing Energy Production: The Birth of Eavor Technology in Geretesried By: Robert Buluma In the picturesque town of Geretesried, nestled in the heart of Germany, a groundbreaking project is underway that promises to reshape the future of energy production as we know it.

"Neuruppin's Geothermal Energy Project: Daldrup & Söhne Set to Drill for Sustainable District Heating"

The drilling for the project in Neuruppin will be carried out by Daldrup & Söhne, a specialist in drilling technology and geothermal solutions based in Unterhaching. According to Daldrup & Söhne, the project's volume is approximately five million euros. The companies anticipate a temperature of around 70°C at the depth of the drilling. To feed this energy into the district heating network, high-temperature heat pumps will elevate it to the desired level. The aim is for the municipal utilities to generate a heat quantity of 76 GWh per year, equivalent to supplying approximately 3,000 average four-person households. The geothermal drilling in Neuruppin is scheduled to commence in the second quarter of 2024, as reported by Daldrup & Söhne. The Neuruppin municipal utilities were the first to receive approval for the investment grant from the Federal Funding for Efficient Heating Networks. Neuruppin is one of the few cities in the northern half of the country that has been u
