Feasibility Studies for Geothermal Heating Systems

• Evaluation of geological and hydrogeological site conditions
• Examination of the planning permission and description of potential planning permission requirements
• Estimation of investment and operation costs, including a comparison with conventional heating systems, Description of government aid
• Recommendation of a geothermal energy source (downhole heat exchanger(s), thermal use of groundwater from wells, ground heat collectors, geothermal baskets)

Dimensioning / Planning of geothermal heating systems for heating and cooling

• Preliminary examinations, such as hydraulic und geothermal yield tests, chemical characteristics of the groundwater et cetera
• Calculation, Dimensioning and Planning of downhole heat exchangers and ground heat collectors, and well systems according to german engineering standards (VDI-Richtlinien 4640), installation of geothermal baskets
• long term simulations for the operation of downhole heat exchangers and thermal use of groundwater with geothermal software (EED, SHEMAT)
• Optimization of downhole heat exchangers by calculation of different alternatives e.g. with or without cooling power / water heating
• Drilling notifications, water right applications

 

Call for bids, award of contract and construction supervision

• Inquiry at various drilling companies, specialized installation businesses
• Assessment and evaluation of the offers, comparison of prices, awarding recommendations
• Supervision of drilling, installation of geothermal heating systems, quality control
• Documentation of planning, installed systems and construction site supervision
