Geothermal Power Plants: Full Steam Ahead for Highest Electricity Yield

In the geothermal power plant, the maximum amount of heat is withdrawn from hot water from the depths of the earth using heat exchangers designed to generate as much steam as possible. In the heat exchanger the hot water releases its heat to another heat transfer medium. This environmentally friendly liquid boils already at 80°C which means that it generates more steam and produces a higher electricity yield. Choosing the right medium is very important when it comes to optimising the fluid cycle and efficiency.
