Tags: Alternative CO2 EGS Energy Geothermal HDR

In 2006 MIT released a report indicating that Geothermal could be a plentiful and cheap source of energy with modest investment. Of course the Bush administration moved to immediately cut all funding. ------------------------------------ There are a number of variations on the traditional Dry Steam power plants. Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS) "enhance" and/or create geothermal systems through hydraulic stimulation. When natural cracks and pores will not allow for economic flow rates, the permeability can be "enhanced" or stimulated by pumping cold water into the rock. Hot Dry Rock Geothermal Energy (HDR) is a type of geothermal power production that uses the very high temperatures (approx 200 Celsius) that can be found in rocks a few kilometers below ground. Electricity is generated by pumping high pressure water down a borehole (injection well) into the heat zone. HDR/EGS Advantages: 1. Carbon Free, Renewable 2. Baseload 3. Scaleable and Modular 4. Massive and distributed resource CO2 EGS Research conducted at Los Alamos National Laboratories and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratories examined the use of supercritical CO2, instead of water, as the geothermal working fluid with favorable results. CO2 EGS advantages: 1. Greater power output 2. Minimized parasitic losses from pumping and cooling 3. Carbon sequestration 4. Minimized water use The recently established Center for Geothermal Energy Excellence at the University of Queensland, has been awarded $18.3 million (AUS) for EGS research, a large portion of which will be used to develop CO2 EGS technologies. http://www1.eere.energy.gov/geothermal/powerplants.html http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enhanced_Geothermal_System
