International Centre for Geothermal Research ICGR
Section 4.1: Reservoir Technologies

The use of geothermal energy becomes an important issue of future energy supply within strategies for the mitigation of climate changes. The International Center for Geothermal Research (ICGR) meets this challenge by developing reliable geothermal technologies and innovative concepts of a sustainable economic energy supply. ICGR covers research in a holistic approach along the whole chain of geothermal technologies from the geothermal reservoir to the provision of power, heat, and chill. Especially, the center is focused to reduce risks and costs of geothermal exploration and exploitation and to expand accessible reservoirs addressing most of European and worldwide geological settings. The center offers a closely interface between research and industry bundling international geothermal expertise and experience in a global geothermal network based on self developed large scale hands on projects which plot the whole process for a geothermal energy supply.
