Green Therma Generation 5 Geothermal Technology Revolutionises Enclosed Loop Heat Production

Green Therma’s Fifth Generation Geothermal Technology Targets Heat Markets Image: Kim Gunn Maver, Chief Geologist at Green Therma The geothermal industry has historically depended on favourable geological conditions, naturally permeable reservoirs and the availability of underground fluids. Although conventional hydrothermal systems have enabled commercial geothermal electricity generation and heat across several countries, their dependence on specific geological characteristics has limited the number of locations where projects can be developed successfully. A new generation of engineered geothermal technologies is seeking to address these limitations by changing how heat is extracted from the subsurface. Green Therma is advancing what it describes as Generation 5 geothermal technology, centred on Enclosed Loop Geothermal (ELG). Unlike conventional hydrothermal systems and Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS) , the technology uses a fully enclosed engineered piping arrangement that pre...
