Three corporations holding exploration licenses for geothermal in Yverdon-les-Bains, Switzerland have fashioned the YOM consortium, consolidating exploration efforts.
Three corporations, Y-CAD SA, Orllati Actual Property SA, and MalmEnergie Naturelle SA, have created the YOM consortium to launch a joint geothermal exploration marketing campaign within the North Vaud area of Switzerland. By the autumn of 2025, the primary section of the mission will begin with an in depth seismic survey masking 29 municipalities within the Yverdon-les-Bains area.
Every of the consortium members holds a floor exploration allow masking distinct areas within the Yverdon-les-Bains area. Additionally they include completely different specializations and expertise. Y-CAD SA, primarily based in Yverdon-les-Bains and specializing in district heating. MalmEnergie Naturelle SA gives its expertise in a primary mission in Montagny-près-Yverdon. Orllati Actual Property SA is an organization specializing in development and actual property improvement and the event of geothermal vitality by way of its firm Orllati Géothermie SA.
The primary section of the mission, known as “GeothermY,” is a knowledge acquisition marketing campaign that may begin by the autumn of 2025. this can contain establishing a 3D map of the subsoil, over an space of almost 100 sq. kilometers masking 29 municipalities within the North of Vaud. In concrete phrases, a system of small sensors (geophones) might be positioned on the bottom, with a view to grid every space to be measured. Then, for about 4 weeks through the night time, vibrating vehicles might be in operation concurrently in numerous areas of the territory, emitting vibrations each 30 meters.
If profitable, will probably be adopted by a subsurface analysis section utilizing, for instance, prospecting drilling, to extra exactly outline the parameters and traits of the subsurface and measurement a future geothermal exploitation facility.
A number of floor analysis campaigns have already been deployed within the canton of Vaud, notably within the areas of La Côte and Morges and within the Lausanne metropolitan space.
