Having acquired the required property, Bukotermal is now on the designing and allowing part of a geothermal energy challenge in Varazdin, Croatia.
Bukotermal, a three way partnership firm owned by the Varazdin County (85%) and the Mali Bukovec municipality (15%), has began the design and allowing part for a proposed 16-MW geothermal energy challenge in Varazdin County in Croatia. When accomplished, this will likely be the second geothermal energy plant in Croatia and the primary within the nation’s northern area.
Preparations for the development of the geothermal energy plant comes after the acquisition by Bukotermal of the property by which the Lunkjovec-1 nicely is situated. This was an important piece of the deliberate challenge, because the nicely will likely be used for reinjection of cooled fluids again into the geothermal reservoir. Two new injection wells are additionally deliberate to be drilled on this piece of land.
With all property-legal points now resolved, Bukotermal has proceeded to be design of the facility plant, in addition to the method of acquiring a constructing allow for the development of the facility plant, sizzling water pipeline, and related engineering and electrical amenities.
Exploration work on an current borehole, Kutnjak-1, was began by Bukotermal in 2022. The 2 wells (Lunkjovec-1 and Kutnjak-1) had been drilled within the Seventies and may assist a most output of two MW. After a couple of years, a conclusion was reached that the potential geothermal useful resource on the web site can assist a 16-MW geothermal energy facility. The exploration work of Bukotermal indicated a geothermal useful resource with temperature of about 142 °C at a depth of two.4 kilometers.
Along with electrical energy technology, the useful resource may provide round 90 MW of thermal power for agrothermal functions, reminiscent of heating greenhouses for fruits, greens, and flowers.
