REPORT: In the French countryside, technicians are experimenting with geothermal heat energy as an alternative energy source. (V. Morgan et P. Lovett) Video Rating: 4 / 5 Across Australia, thousands of people are already working to develop new technologies and harness cleaner energy sources. These include solar, gas, wind, and hydro, along...

A production well is drilled into a known geothermal reservoir. Typically, an injection well is also drilled to return used geothermal fluids to the geothermal reservoir. Hot, pressurized geothermal fluid, or a secondary working fluid, is allowed to expand rapidly and provide rotational or mechanical energy to turn the turbine blades on a shaft....

Capstone Microturbine Natural Gas/Propane/Diesel comparison to the Infinity Turbine Organic Rankine Cycle waste heat to power. The Infinity Turbine by Infinity Turbine LLC is a geothermal, solar and waste heat (industrial waste heat, gas turbine waste heat, diesel engine waste heat) Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) turbine that generates electricity or...

Geothermal electricity generators at Chena Hot Springs resort and research center, near Fairbanks, Alaska. Warm water from the hot-springs provides energy which is converted to electric power. Two generators are operational while the third (right-most) is offline for repair and maintenance. These generators provide all the electric power for the...

The Infinity Turbine by Global Energy is a biomass, geothermal, solar and waste heat (industrial waste heat, gas turbine waste heat, diesel engine waste heat) Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) turbine that generates electricity or via a PTO shaft horsepower for pumps, compressors and other equipment. Excess heat from the system output can be used for CHP...
