Geothermal energy Our networks Collaboration with the BRGM IFPEN works in close partnership with teams from the BRGM (French Geological and Mining Research Bureau), capitalizing on synergies and complementary expertise . The partners work together within the framework of French and European collaborative projects, sometimes focusing on other themes such

Geothermal energy Our solutions IFPEN proposes a global approach to geothermal energy , from the evaluation of resources through to the dimensioning of surface facilities, production and reinjection well modeling and deposit risks. The approach combines laboratory experiments, advanced modeling and technical and economic assessments. To achieve its objectives and

Geothermal energy OVERVIEW AND CHALLENGES "Deep" geothermal energy, as opposed to surface geothermal energy, aims to harness the heat of the subsurface as a source of heating or electricity . These two objectives are achieved to varying degrees depending on the geographical area. Electricity generation The power required is such
