Objective
- To use geothermal energy to produce district heat and to supply the following
users : spa center, dairy cooperative, heating house, green house, foil tunnel and private users.
- To reduce the level of imported energy
- To achieve high energy efficiency
- To ensure the supply of geothermal energy
- To reduce CO2-emissions.
Since 12/13 October 1998 the geothermal user has been supplied by the new drilling.
In the municipality of Geinberg is an existing geothermal drilling in a depth of 2,127 m.
Presently, the geothermal potential is used to run heating and cooling processe in a dairy, to heat a number of one-family houses (24), and greenhouses (total 17,000 MWh at maximum).
The proposed project is intended to achieve the following objectives:
1. Drilling of a deep hole well 'Geinberg Thermal 2' to secure the required thermal water quantity of 33 l/s (119 m³/h)
2. Extension of the 'Geinberg Thermal 2' well into a production hole.
3. Adaptation of the existing 'Geinberg 1' well to function as a reinjection hole.
Since October 1998 the geothermal user has been supplied by the new drilling. Existing geothermal heat supply systems for room heating and hot water preparation are currently utilising only part of the available thermal energy potential. Presently, only a part of the total output of the existing thermal water deep hole well of Geinberg can actually be achieved.
To secure the required thermal water quantity of 33 l/s (119 m³/h) the well head design is going to be changed.
The cascade-type utilisation pattern will be established to allow maximum utilisation of the available geothermal potential.
