    Geothermal power generation growth is continuing, but at a lower pace than in the previous decade. Total world use of geothermal energy is giving a contribution both to energy saving (around 26 million tons of oil per year) and to CO2 emission reduction (80 million tons / year if compared with equivalent oilfuelled production)

    Geothermal Energy & Geothermal Power Plants

    Introduction

    What does geothermal mean?? What is geothermal energy??

    Usage  
    Usage of geothermal energy in past. Usage in present scenario.

    Geotherma heat & earths surface

    Other method of generation


    Electricity can be generated even if no source of hot water
     

    Two Wells are drilled. Rocks between the wells are fractured. Cool water is pumped down from first well. Hot water is pumped up from second well.

    Geothermal to Electrical
    

    Geothermal energy to electrical energy.

    Types of Geo. Power plants


    Dry steam type power plant Flash power plant Binary power plant

    Dry Steam Type


    Dry steam extracted from
    natural reservoir
    180-225 C 4-8 MPa 200+ km/hr (100+ mph)

    Steam is used to drive a

    turbo generator Steam is condensed and pumped back into the ground Can achieve 1 kWh per 6.5 kg of steam

    Flash Type
    Steam with water extracted
    from ground Pressure of mixture drops at surface and more water flashes to steam Steam separated from water Steam drives a turbine Turbine drives an electric generator Generate between 5 to 100 MW Use 6 to 9 tones of steam per hour

    Binary Type
    Low temps 100 C and
    150 C Use heat to vaporize organic liquid
    E.g., iso-butane, iso-pentane

    Use vapour to drive turbine


    Causes vapour to condense Recycle continuously

    Typically 7 to 12 % efficient 0.1 40 MW units common

    Why Geothermal Power Plant??

    Clean Easy on the land. Cost Effective

    Why Geothermal Power Plant??

    Reliable

    Flexible

    Other usage
    

    Non electric usage of geothermal energy -- Geothermal heat pump -- Direct use

    Other aspects
    

    How much electricity from geothermal energy??

    Future of Geothermal Energy


    

    Geothermal power generation growth is continuing, but at a lower pace than in the previous decade, while direct heat uses show a strong increase compared to the past. The total world use of geothermal power is giving a contribution both to energy saving (around 26 million tons of oil per year) and to CO2 emission reduction (80 million tons/year if compared with equivalent oilfuelled production)

    Conclusion
    

    Cleanliness Simple concept Widely available

    Thank You!!
