Deep geothermal energy - an interdisciplinary challenge. Shaft with 3D underground collector as heat exchanger / Tiefe Geothermie - eine interdisziplinäre Herausforderung. Schachtbauweise mit 3D-Gebirgskollektoren als Wärmetauscher

The "Deep geothermal power station" project represents a new process for the exploitation of geothermal energy. District heating and heating for industrial purposes as well as electricity can be produced in a geothermal power station. The heat extraction will be controlled and continuous in a closed circulation system using drillings from a mined system of tunnels at a depth of 6,000 m. In order to overcome the high temperatures and rock pressures to be expected, interdisciplinary collaboration between several professions will be required.
